[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are people so programmed to root against Trump that they’ll go out of their way to downplay positive news?[/quote]

Are people so ingrained in a cult that they cannot look critically at information to understand the actual state of our economy?[/quote]

If sales are up 9.1% and inflation is at 3% what critical thinking am I missing?[/quote]

Is sales volume up or sales revenue? With 10% tariffs, not surprising that sales revenue is up 9.1%[/quote]

Irrelevant. This is a measure of consumers and their willingness to spend.[/quote]

VERY relevant. Per Salesforce, order volumes fell 1%, 2% fewer items were purchased per transactions, while selling prices increased 7%

In other words, people are paying more for less.

Trump's economy is a failure. [/quote]

Based on all the doom and gloom people peddle here these statistics seem very positive. People are paying more and sales are still up 9%.[/quote]

No, the price paid is up (tariffs), actual products purchased, down. That is NOT good. Also FWIW, people may be more apt to seek deals right now. My own family is an example of this as my spouse is three months into a layoff so we actually spent more on Black Friday for things we will need in a few months (next size up kids shoes), whereas I normally would not bother and just wait till they actually need them.
