    The stock market is beginning to turn. We have had huge non-confirmation for the past week or more, and today the market is down about 1.45% . Wait 'till tomorrow! We'll get a correction next week but it looks like the bull market has ended.

    It's certainly possible. A LOT depends on Congress, at this point.

    I'm not optimistic about them.

    Given his past predictions, I wouldn't put a whit on Ron Paul's economic claims.

    A couple days results in the stock market doesn't mean a lot, and the last couple days probably reflect more concern with the North Korean issue than anything else.

    Stocks are overpriced, so a correction wouldn't be a surprise. However, overall economic indicators remain pretty strong, so I think it may be a bit premature to write the bull off yet.

    Non-confirmation is not usually associated with corrections, but we'll see.

    please don't waste your time predicting the future. Its a fools errand. If you could do it you'd be a billionaire

    As Sales Plunge, GM Might Cancel Six Car Models
    by Wolf Richter • Jul 20, 2017

    GM is getting whacked harder than any of the major automakers by the industry-wide plunge in car sales, as Americans switch in ever larger numbers from cars to “trucks,” which include pickups, van, SUVs and crossovers. In the first half of 2017, GM’s car sales in the US plunged 19%, and in June 38%.

    The rest of the industry (without GM) booked declines in car sales of “only” 10% in the first half and 9% in June.

    – North Korea is threatening to nuke the US
    – Donald Trump is firing his entire cabinet
    – The Federal Reserve has dropped interest rates to record lows and drowned the world in trillions of dollars of cash
    – Debt levels are at record highs
    – Entire banking systems, especially in Europe, are in need of massive bailouts
    – The US government will run out of money in less than 90-days and hit the debt ceiling once again

    Former Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan Ominously Warns That The Biggest Bond Bubble In History Is About To Burst
    By Michael Snyder, on August 4th, 2017

    Are we right on the verge of one of the greatest financial collapses in American history? I have been repeatedly warning that our ridiculously over-inflated stock market bubble could burst at any time, but former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan believes that the bond bubble actually presents an even greater danger. When you look at the long-term charts, you will see that an epic bond bubble has been growing since the early 1980s, and when it finally collapses the financial carnage is going to be unlike anything we have ever seen before.

    “The current level of interest rates is abnormally low and there’s only one direction in which they can go, and when they start they will be rather rapid,” Greenspan said on “Squawk Box.”
