What Is This Chart Telling Us About What’s Coming? – Funding Watch

By Graham Summers, MBA

Yesterday, I revealed some disturbing information.

That information?

That the economic system is already in recession. It’s not a matter of a recession arriving quickly… a recession is already right here.

By fast manner of overview…

1) Copper, a commodity that’s carefully aligned with financial development, has erased HALF of its pandemic features.

2) Oil, one other commodity that’s carefully aligned with financial development, has collapsed by 23% within the final 4 months. And the state of affairs is getting worse: oil dropped over 9% on Tuesday.

In gentle of all of this, you may be saying, “OK Graham, is a recession is already right here, why isn’t it exhibiting up within the information?”

As a result of the info is backward-trying.

Every bit of knowledge the U.S. stories issues what has already occurred… often months in the past. Working example, the U.S. solely simply launched its GDP information regarding the first quarter of 2022 eight days in the past.

To place that into context, the economic system is now in its THIRD quarter of the yr. And we’re solely simply getting the ultimate outcomes for the primary quarter now!?!

Once more, each piece of knowledge the U.S. is weeks, if not months outdated.

The market, by means of distinction, is ahead-looking: it reductions what’s about to occur.

With that in thoughts, what does the under chart inform you in regards to the true state of the economic system right now?

And in case you suppose that chart is nasty trying, you higher not take a look at this subsequent one.

It makes good sense… the final two recessions noticed main bear markets that erased over 50% of the inventory market’s worth. Why would this one be totally different?
