Episode 374: Prepare for the Hard Landing
8% mortgage interest rates and the Fed refusing to step in to assist the mortgage market will lead to major economic blowback - that will bleed outside of the mortgage industry. China is having their own economic issues with a potential real estate crisis in their country - which will be felt throughout the developed world. The employment data we are receiving must be corrupted, as if anyone were to observe from within their own community, they can tell you no one is ‘killing it’ and good career opportunities aren’t abundant.
