A trove of data will be released by the Trump Administration tomorrow, information unavailable since the start of the government shutdown October 1. It’s not the Epstein files. The oligarchs in Finance actually WANT this disclosure.
Major US economic indicators were not reported out as scheduled over the past two months. Key reports For September and October that are missing include
- The Jobs Report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, including nonfarm payrolls and the unemployment rate
- Inflation reports, such as the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and Producer Price Index (PPI)
- Gross Domestic Product
- Retail sales
- Personal income and spending
- Housing and construction data
- Trade balance and durable goods orders
- Job openings and labor turnover (JOLTS)
Economic data collected and aggregated by technocrats is just the latest in an unending series of Democrat hoaxes, according to Trump. Erika McEntarfer was commissioner of BLS until she was fired in August after the agency released a jobs that was weaker than expected and which included significant downward revisions to previous months’ data. Trump publicly claimed the job numbers were “rigged” and “phony.”
The numbers coming out tomorrow are only for September. We’ll need to wait weeks for October numbers, if they come at all. Since surveys were shut down with the government, only partial data has been collected, and data with uncertain accuracy.
These data are essential for Wall Street, mostly to game out how the Fed will react to them and change interest rates. Incidentally they give economists and the rest of us a picture of how bad things are.
Will a bad economy overshadow the pedofile coverup? We’ll see. In any case, it will be a very bad news week for Mr. Trump.
