Okay, we are of differing opinions, althou I probably wouldnt look to GPD either if asked about the economy. I wouldn't judge the economy on my personal situation or others around me thou either. Ask me how the economy is doing, I say shitty, too many people un and under-employed, americans have very little discretionary income and an abundance of debt, few own their homes and cars, and cant afford healthcare and education (college specifically) which may be in stark contrast to me personally.mrussel1 said:People ranking the economy low on the list of concerns is a sure sign we are in a bull market.
And JC, I do think most average people judge the economy based on their personal situation and those people they are close to. Most are not reading unemployment #'s and GDP growth.0 -
But how have you acquired the information that too many people are unemployed or under-employed? Is that from discussion with your peers and family or is it looking at statistical information?JC29856 said:

25 hedge fund managers earn more than all the kindergarten teachers in the US combined. Trump's cabinet of millionaires and billionaires will surely understand this dynamic and work to fix it.

Yes.. they won't sleep until the it's down to 15 hedge managers OR Kindergarten and 1st grade combined. Either would be acceptable.Halifax2TheMax said:25 hedge fund managers earn more than all the kindergarten teachers in the US combined.

Are you asking if I specifically look up statistical information to formulate an opinion on the economy, no and I doubt anyone else does either. To answer your question likely both, of course people look around. I believe that most dont grade the economy on their personal situations, at least I don't. Interesting discussion thou, I would like to hear from others.mrussel1 said:

Carried interest loophole was discussed between Hilliary and Trump, I guess we will wait and see if this is ever addressed.Halifax2TheMax said:25 hedge fund managers earn more than all the kindergarten teachers in the US combined.

I read the stats so I understand the macro conditions. I watch (and play) the market. My job is heavily tied to employment numbers and to the housing market (last two years have been fantastic). I also talk to people, friends and family. It's all of those things that inform me.JC29856 said:

I can tell you I have a hard time finding people with college educations in their 20's to fill roles. We start at about 45k and I have my team recruit from the local state university. It's difficult to get people in. There is a fair amount of competition for jobs if you have a college degree today.0 -
and your grade on the "economy" on scale of 1 to 10, 1 being real shitty and 10 be absolutely fantastic? I'm sitting 4 bordering 3.mrussel1 said:

No way.. 1 is the Great Depression. 3-4 was probably the Recession of 08. I don't know what fantastic is, but we are just about at full employment right now. If the mid 90's was an 9, then we are 7+ right now. Humming along... except for today when Trump's erratic weekend is giving everyone jitters, especially tech stocks.JC29856 said:

Gallup tracks individuals and their take on the economy over time, both with their personal situation and perception of the larger economy. It's really interesting info and I encourage you to check it out.JC29856 said:
