Unemployment to rise

Discussion in 'Economics' started by earth_imperator, Apr 23, 2023.

  1. Producers are earning big due to price increases: they make more profit
    by selling less products. But this will cause snowball-effects:
    fewer production, though still profitable, means to lay-off the unneeded workers...
    Meaning unemployment has to rise. Meaning fewer people can afford to buy the products...

    This is how business cycles works, without productivity gains the system will inevitable degrade due to short-term benefits & long-term disadvantages of policy action to smooth impact of business cycles on trend.

    Has anyone here considered trading directly on economic numbers? How do you currently do it?
