Another thing is the us economy from the stock market, its indicated its showing strength, but americans might not be feeling the benefit. This is the thing, on paper of the economy is quite strong. It looks like a us soft landing after covid and inflation issues weve had, and we dont see a recession on the horizon, so americans should be feeling good about the economy and their pocketbooks. They dont, and there is concern of where things might be going heading forward. But certainly they should be feeling better than they do, but this will be a challenge because again, theyll be looking for biden to say notjust theyll be looking for biden to say not just whats theyll be looking for biden to say notjust whats happening t

Many economists dismiss the downgrade, including Jp Morgan Chase ceo jamie diamond, who called it ridiculous and said that the decision ultimately didnt really matter. And he may not be wrong. Us treasuries, that is government ious, remain the bedrock of the Global Financial system, despite this latest knock to the reputation. Expectations are high that it will raise rates again. If so, it could take the cost of borrowing up to a 15 year high. Consumer inflation has come down more than expected
