Trump’s really big supporters openlyÂ grieved that the explosionÂ of hisÂ emphatically promised Obamacare replacement bodes poorly for all of Trump’s plans. Fox’s Sean Hannity and Lou Dobbs haranguedÂ the Republican party for failing to takeÂ the reins and lead now that the partyÂ finally has the chance to prove it can do what it has promised. Hannity stated thatÂ numerous high […]

Is the US stock market going to crash in 2017? [By Philip Timms [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons]

Many of the 2017 economic headwinds I’ve described will hitÂ during the Ides of March, just asÂ the Trump stock-market rally shows signsÂ of topping out. ThisÂ might not be the Great EpocalypseÂ — not all at once anyway — butÂ a large and likely correction is looming.Â I thinkÂ the bear is about to be let out of his cage.

2017 Economic Forecast: Global Headwinds Look Like Mother of All Storms

Posted March 5, 2017 By David Haggith

2017 Economic Forecast is looking like the mother of all storms

Headwinds that are starting toÂ assail deep structural flaws in the US and global economiesÂ formÂ the basis for my 2017 economic forecast, which looks like an all-out economic crisis building throughout the world.Â Some of these headwinds are global; some more locallyÂ focused within the United States, but that which brings down the US economy wounds the world anyway.

Trump is market magic. The DonaldÂ spoke, offering nothing he hasn’t said hundreds of times before in his campaign speeches, and the Dow parted its way through theÂ 21,000 barrier without hesitation. The stock market’s rise from 20k to 21k also tied a record for the quickest 1,000-point gain. How long will this rampagingÂ bull marketÂ last?

LET’S BEAT THE ESTABLISHMENT!

Thank you to thoughtful readers over the years who have supported my writing so this site could continue to focus on fighting the Fed. I retired early to work full-time at creating this site and to assemble news headlines for The Daily Doom each morning, and to speak out in interviews about the economic collapse our politicians and bankers are causing. I hope you’ll help me continue to shine a revealing spotlight on the greed, the corruption, and the Federal Reserve’s failures so we don’t keeping rinsing and repeating all we’ve been through. Please visit my Patreon page to see how you can help make that happen.
