Only 2 weeks until GDP is reported. I'd be surprised if it is negative but very likely anemic. Most services are reporting about 1.5-1.8% increase in retail sales and a cut back in corporate expenditures netting out somewhere around low 1%'s. Government spending is up too. Should be really interesting report.
Economists are estimating that Trump's tariffs program will bring the U.S. economy all the way back to 1910. Impressive. Economists continue to revise estimates for Trump's tariff policy. Most possibilities still take us back to the 1910s.
Trumps economic policies will be his downfall. He’s, as Regis used to say, “bonkers”. He’s going to set the US back for years. It’s his ego. He thinks he knows all. Hopefully the house will turn in 2026. If not, we are in a financial world of caca.
well this will help clear the backlog China blocks Boeing deliveries in retaliation to Trump tariffs China has barred its country’s airlines from accepting deliveries from Boeing in retaliation against Donald Trump’s tariffs. The ban will apply to all existing orders from the US manufacturing giant, while Beijing has also told the country’s carriers not to buy any aircraft-related equipment or parts from other American companies.
If Trump really cared about bringing manufacturing back to the US why in the world would he give Apple and smart phones a carve out?

‘The Trump administration can’t ignore Boeing,’ BofA says after China reportedly halts imports from the U.S. aircraft manufacturer According to Bank of America aerospace and defense analyst Ronald Epstein, Boeing’s role in China’s retaliation strategy has forced Trump to pay attention to the American aircraft manufacturer, even as the situation is subject to change or reverse. “Boeing is the U.S.'s largest exporter, as such, we are not surprised by China's move; however, we do see this as unsustainable,” Epstein wrote in a note to investors Tuesday. “When considering balances of trade, we think the Trump Administration can't ignore Boeing.” ........................... Boeing remains one of the few old-school U.S. manufacturers and relies heavily on exports, receiving about two-thirds of its orders outside the U.S. CEO Kelly Ortberg has opposed tariffs, citing the importance of Boeing’s international business on providing U.S. jobs. “Free trade is very important to us,” Ortberg said at a Senate hearing earlier this month. “We really are the ideal kind of an export company where we’re outselling internationally. It’s creating U.S. jobs, long-term high-value U.S. jobs. So it’s important that we continue to have access to that market and that we don’t get in a situation where certain markets become closed to us.”
