Economic Collapse Confirmed! Big Companies All Over America Report Disastrous Financial Results

If the economy really was “booming”, then corporate earnings would be rising. But that isn’t happening. In fact, we haven’t seen corporate earnings fall like this since the last economic collapse. They fell during the first quarter of this year, and based on the results we have so far, it appears that corporate earnings will be down substantially once again in the second quarter. When corporate earnings drop for two quarters in a row, that is officially considered to be an “earnings recession”, and that normally occurs just before the overall economy plunges into economic crisis territory. As things get tighter for our corporate giants, we should expect a lot more layoffs in the months ahead, and the unemployment rate should rise quite briskly. In other words, it looks like our economic problems are about to accelerate substantially and the next stock market crash and crisis has arrived. This week, some of the largest companies in the entire country reported results for the second quarter, and we witnessed disappointment after disappointment. Let’s start with Boeing… The 737 Max is already more than four months into an unprecedented global grounding, which authorities ordered after two fatal crashes. Of course Boeing made a bad plane, and so their disastrous results could certainly be blamed on that. But what about Netflix? Once one of the darlings of Wall Street, Netflix has been absolutely monkeyhammered in recent days. On the other hand, the future was supposed to be exceedingly bright for Tesla, but the firm is hemorrhaging money like crazy and over the past 24 hours the stock price has crashed hard. Meanwhile, the rest of the auto industry is really struggling as well. In fact, Ford just reported very disappointing results and reduced the forecast for the remainder of 2019 significantly. Are you starting to see a pattern? Even Paypal is falling short of expectations. Everything that I have just shared with you makes complete and total sense if the U.S. economy is in the process of plunging into an economic collapse and next Great Depression. And other economic numbers continue to tell us the exact same thing. For example, we just got the worst U.S. manufacturing PMI number in 118 months. That is absolutely terrible news, but Europe’s manufacturing sector is doing even worse. Manufacturing activity is slowing down all over the globe, and a big reason for that is because global trade is shrinking at the fastest pace that we have seen since the last financial collapse and stock market crash.. Meanwhile, we just learned that existing home sales in the United States have now fallen on a year over year basis for sixteen months in a row. After something happens 16 times in a row, you would think that the experts would be able to spot a “trend” by now, but so many of them continue to be optimistic about the real estate industry. In addition, store closing announcements just continue to roll in at a stunning rate. This week, we learned that GNC is planning to close up to 900 stores by the end of 2020. We were already on pace to absolutely shatter the all-time record for store closings in a single year even before that announcement, and the phrase “retail apocalypse” almost doesn’t seem strong enough to describe what we are witnessing any longer. Unprecedented money printing by the Federal Reserve and an unprecedented debt binge by the federal government may have bought us a very brief reprieve, but none of the fundamental economic problems that were identified during the last recession were ever fixed. Now a new economic collapse has arrived, and we are just in the very early chapters of it. Script written by Michael Snyder, author of: www.theeconomiccollapseblog.com
