Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
So while I am no expert, Yardeni has been making the right calls for a while now. Here is his latest piece which I (novice individual investor) was very impressed with. I have chosen fund discussions but that might not be correct.
“The scenario I just sketched isn’t a forecast. It is a description of exactly what has been happening in Japan. The forecast is that most of the rest of the world will follow suit. Japan is the poster child for the rest of us who aren’t having enough babies to replace ourselves.”
(BTW- That’s not a new thought. It’s been around for many years.)
So why is this country intent on deploying armed forces to the southern border to turn away hungry, willing to work (and consume), families with babies? This isn’t an argument for open borders. But with severe labor shortages across much of the nation, it seems not in our own self interest to discourage new arrivals. MAGA
As a prospective employer, would you be willing to offer a job to someone who had just walked 2,000 miles in search of work?
