Countless stores closing, economy increasingly reliant on stimulus. This is bound to fail. The question is, when?
Today we can see that many stores have closed all over the world. The biggest group being retail stores but it seems to be contagious, affecting everything from banks and financial companies to consumer goods. There are no reasons for this to happen after a decade of stimulus, but here we are. An economy in struggle, yet hidden by fraudulent statistics. There’s no possible way to grow out of this mess and it’s only a matter of time before the Fed ramps up the printing presses yet again.
