Do you listen to the econ numbers every week???....they are proof in the pudding. The slowing is just starting....the Fed hikes from months ago are just starting to effect the economy.... gold is a value play...but If I wanted A value today, I'll just go to the sales at Walmart.<<GGG>>

That is precisely what makes you a Poly. You have no basis to support that statement, outside of hope and faith, which is the basic methodology of "New Era" or old bulldinkie Now ain't that "the pot calling the kettle black".. You've been touting this BS about Stagflation for the last year or two and we haven't seen it yet. You were one of the worst Y2K fearmongers, as I recall, telling us gold would surge, yet it didn't happen. Criticizing someone else's theories when your own have proven unreliable hardly provides you any credibility. And I think FredE is quite correct. We're more likely to see a soft-landing (which the market will applaud) than a recession. That would mean we would have to fall from 5-6% annualized growth to negative, something that is pretty unlikely. However, there is a chance that AG overdid the rate hikes, but that will be resolved through increasing liquidity, setting the stage for eventual rate reductions down the line.
