The economic numbers just continue to get worse and worse, and at this point it has become exceedingly clear that an economic slowdown is happening. In fact, even the chair of the Federal Reserve is using the term “slowdown” to describe what is taking place. But of course many are still hoping that the U.S. economy can pull out of this slump and avoid the sort of crippling recession that we experienced in 2008. Unfortunately, that may be really tough because the entire global economy is slowing down right now.
Our world is more interconnected than ever before, and what happens on one side of the planet is invariably going to affect the other side of the planet. Some parts of the globe are already mired in deep economic problems, and the U.S. appears to be following down the same path.
If you still think that the economy is in “good shape”, please read over the following list very carefully.
The following are 14 very alarming numbers that reveal the true state of the economy…
#1 Continuing jobless claims are rising at the fastest pace in 10 years.
#2 U.S. businesses are adding jobs at the slowest pace in 18 months.
#3 General Motors, Ford, Nissan and Fiat Chrysler all reported sales declines of at least 5 percent on a year over year basis in March.
#4 Tesla vehicle deliveries were down a whopping 31 percent during the first quarter of 2019.
#5 U.S. consumer confidence fell more than 7 points in March.
#6 Manhattan real estate sales have now fallen for six straight quarters. That is the longest losing streak in 30 years.
#7 London real estate sales just dropped by the most we have seen in 10 years.
#8 The owner of Kay, Zales and Jared jewelers just announced that they will be closing 150 stores.
#9 Retail layoffs are 92 percent higher than they were at this time last year.
#10 U.S. freight shipment volume has fallen for three months in a row.
#11 The inventory to sales ratio in the United States has risen sharply for five months in a row.
#12 At this point, almost half of all renters in America spend more than 30 percent of their incomeson rent.
#13 The real median net income for Minnesota farmers was only $26,055 in 2018, and that was before many of them were absolutely devastated by the recent flooding.
#14 Overall, U.S. economic numbers are off to their worst start for a year since 2008.
