So I guess your trading hasn't gone so well this year, huh? Bummer...maybe next year. I'll no doubt be spending like white trash with a winning lotto ticket so between the two of us it'll be a net wash for the economy.
American consumer stronger than ever. Tons of money to spend, lots of creditcard debt. It all works out. Rising oil and food has no affect on consumer for various reasons.
Wow That may be the most ridiculous post you have ever made stock. Rising gas and food prices have no effect on the consumer? Seriously, dude what planet are you from? CC debt is now a good thing? wow
Um because of 4% inflation consumers are used to paying increasing amounts for food and gas year after year.
So by that reasoning, food and gas prices have only risen 4%? Not sure where you shop, but here in Ca. prices have risen just a bit more than that.
