Get the hell out of the stock market

[ugafanatic1980]

With what's going on in China, and the risk of the Euro failing...

The banks can't lower rates like the last time this happened to help stimulate economic activity. You're going to see almost no capital expenditures by companies and there will be no new jobs created, and you will likely see increases in unemployment.

Subprime lending is still going on, which is what caused the housing market collapse. The Omnibus Bill is ending programs that help ease the books of the banks and allow the large numbers of homeowners in default to stay in their current homes temporarily. These mortgages are actually going to be due at some point, and the banks will take the homes back. This is going to be another disaster that crushes your property values.

This garbage drives me insane. I graduated from college recently and these idiots running the global economy have no idea what they're doing. This is a global economic response to governments intervening in their economies and one party in this country is going to nominate a self proclaimed Socialist if the front runner ends up in prison where she belongs. Unbelievable.

Save your money, get your credit score up, and get piece oc property for a good price once it starts. Biggest issue is people not living within their means. If you cant afford it, dont buy it. Goes for cars also.

Why?

Sorry, I was an Econ major so I think others are aware of certain things that they may not be sometimes. The 10 year graph on this link shows what I was talking about. When the rates are high, people can't borrow as much and businesses won't borrow as much for projects/development/whatever. The rates, which have been raised a little bit recently, have been artificially low to encourage investment and capital expenditures by companies to invest in new technology and improving infrastructure. Raising the rates will slow this down.

The problem, which can theoretically be fixed, but not easily, is this: the interest rates are artificially low because without it, our GDP wouldn't be where it is right now because of all the restrictions and regulations the Obama administration has imposed on businesses along with raises on individual and corporate taxes.

QUICK SIDEBAR: Corporations are owned by shareholders, which are just regular f*cking people. Why anyone has the nerve to knock them or try to confiscate their profits is beyond me. IT IS LITERALLY STEALING THE REDISTRIBUTIED PROFITS THAT GO TO AVERAGE CITIZENS IN THE FORM OF DIVIDENDS.

I think (could be wrong) that this is Odumbass trying to save face with the working American people. The rates are low, so it looks like everything is ok, even though it isn't. The labor force participation rate is the lowest it's been since my parents were born. Almost 40% the country is already out of work, and it's going to get worse. When businesses don't invest in new technology and innovate, no new jobs are created. When this happens, GDP doesn't increase, then tax revenue flattens out. Combine this with the regulations, they'll go down. Then the fools in Washington will raise taxes on businesses. Then jobs are lost.

The biggest problem is that the Chinese currency has to be deflated, because the only thing their middle class can invest in is their stock market and real estate. Since the market is so saturated with investors because of the recent success of their manufacturing sector, prices are through the roof. They are creating a massive bubble that will burst and f*ck up their economy and the rest of the world's also because of how interconnected everything is. This is a giant disaster waiting to happen.

There is also a student loan bubble starting to form. The student loan debt in this country is estimated to be close to $1.2 TRILLION recently (I can't remember where I saw this) and the rates on these loans for most of the federally backed loans are about 8%. The unsubsidized are AROUND 11-12%. If you combine this with the other domestic economic problems, this is a complete f*cking disaster.

I'm not predicting when this will happen, but it is going to happen. The writing is clearly on the wall.
