Stagflation: Why Retirees Should Care 🇺🇸 While the U.S. economy isn’t officially in a period of stagflation yet, signs are pointing in that direction. Also concerning is that if stagflation starts, it’s unclear how long it will last.
“Stagflation is a double whammy for retirees, who now have to pay for things (via inflation) and likely have lower savings if the markets continue to do poorly,” says Blanchett. In periods of stagflation, it can be difficult for retirees to maintain their lifestyles without drawing more money from their retirement savings accounts. With stock markets down, retirees can no longer absorb inflation by relying on rising investment accounts as they did in the past, says Dann Ryan, managing partner at Sincerus Advisory.
As a result, Ryan says retirees may need to pay more attention to how much they draw down from their retirement accounts; they should make sure they are closer to the 4% withdrawal rate during periods of stagflation. Retirees may also need to rein in their spending and adjust their lifestyle to cope with rising prices for goods and services.

Big Tech’s ‘Magnificent Seven’ heads into earnings season reeling from the Trump Administration’s tariff turbulence 🇺🇸 “The mass confusion created by this constant news flow out of the White House is dizzying for the industry and investors and creating massive uncertainty and chaos for companies trying to plan their supply chain, inventory, and demand,” Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives said. 🇺🇸
The first Trump Administration had a targeted tariff plan, but does the current Trump Administration’s economic policies seem overly emotional and chaotic? Shouldn’t the White House have well thought out economic policies with a stable roll out?

Does it seem like the White House Billionaires advising the Trump Administration are out of touch with the reality of how Americans live? They recommended tariffs that will lead to higher prices and decreased stock values which are expected to then lead to layoffs plus they recommended increased federal defense spending and tax cuts for billionaires that will increase the federal deficit and likely lead to more inflation and even higher prices. 🇺🇸 It seems that the White House Billionaires thought Americans would be able to spend increasing amounts of money, even while prices are going up and there are increased concerns of lay offs because of the new tariffs and inflation.

U.S. consumer sentiment decreased in April and 12-month inflation expectations surged to the highest level since 1981 amid unease over the Trump Administration’s escalating tariff wars that have roiled financial markets and raised the risk of a recession. 🇺🇸 The survey showed the share of consumers expecting unemployment to rise in the year ahead increased for the fifth straight month to the highest level since 2009, when the economy was in the midst of the Great Recession. We can expect Americans will continue to spend less as there are more on/off tariffs which may lead the stock market to stagnation or a continued decline.

DeepSeek unveils new AI reasoning method as anticipation for its next-gen model rises. In collaboration with researchers from Tsinghua University, DeepSeek developed a technique that combines methods referred to as generative reward modelling (GRM) and self-principled critique tuning, according to a paper published on Friday. The dual approach aims to enable LLMs to deliver better and faster results to general queries.The resulting DeepSeek-GRM models outperformed existing methods, having “achieved competitive performance” with strong public reward models, the researchers wrote. Reward modeling is a process that guides an LLM towards human preferences.

If Americans are charged higher taxes in the form of tariffs at the same time that tens of thousands of Americans are being laid off, inevitably more and more Americans will spend less money and then we will likely be in a loop of less consumer spending, the stock market dropping, and companies laying off Americans 🔄 The stock market has already erased one year of gains. The question is how long will this go on for? The next 4 years?

Tech giant IBM is set to cut around 9,000 jobs in the US in 2025 🇺🇸 with a significant portion of the affected roles expected to shift to India, The Register reported citing sources familiar with the matter. So far it seems that most US companies will not move jobs to the US because of tariffs. In the end Americans will pay higher prices and the potential Trump Administration tax cuts will be less than the higher prices when added up over next 4 years for most Americans. The main people benefiting from the tariffs are the Project 2025 billionaires and the White House billionaires who will get massive tax cuts, overall billionaires seem to have too much influence over the Trump Administration.

Bank of America Foresees Possible 40% Decline of S&P 500 Due To Growth-Stock Bubble. The bank’s strategists, earlier this week, drew a comparison between the current market scenario and the notorious “Nifty Fifty” and “dot-com” bubbles of the 1960s and late 1990s. 🇺🇸 The market cap of U.S. stocks is 3.3 standard deviations away from the historical average, when compared to the rest of the world. The top five stocks in the S&P 500 now make up 26.4% of the index. Combined with competition for the Magnificent 7 from Chinese AI companies this is concerning.

Is billionaire Peter Thiel using President Trump to push authoritarianism on American citizens? NRx: The underground movement that wants to destroy democracy. 🇺🇸 Those who adhere to it believe that the United States should be governed like a company, with an imperial and techno-authoritarian dictator CEO.

Interested to hear if y’all think President Trump pardoned Ross because he thinks Ross should be free or because of the Republican backlash against Trump for pardoning the Jan 6th prisoners that assaulted American police officers? 🇺🇸 is this like when President Trump said he supported bitcoin and then released his own meme coin?

Interesting question for y’all
If Meta has spent billions on:
1. Buying its competitors (Instagram and WhatsApp)
2. Hypothetically banning its competitors (TikTok)
3. and Meta can’t buy or ban Nostr, what do y’all think they’re doing to incapacitate Nostr?

Are Meta’s claims to support freedom of speech all lies to make themselves more money? Chinese TikTok alternative RedNote is the #1 app downloaded ahead of potential TikTok ban. American TikTokers have said they are deleting their Facebook and Instagram accounts in protest and will be using alternative social media apps to send a message to the U.S. government, as well as the social media company Meta. Meta allegedly lobbied Congress to have TikTok banned in 2022 and 2024.
