Merry Christmas to everyone, I hope your holiday season is filled with joy, hope and love.

The economy is in gear already!

I've been expecting a solid Q2 2026, maybe even Q1, but definitely Q2 onward. It turns out, 2025 has ss way ahead of schedule on the boom.

Via Breitbart:

The Commerce Department said U.S. gross domestic product—the government’s official economic scorecard—rose at a seasonally and inflation-adjusted 4.3 percent annual rate in the third quarter. The report on the July through September period was delayed due to the shutdown.

“Today’s blockbuster, expectation-smashing GDP report is the latest proof that President Trump’s America First trade and economic agenda continues to turn the page on the Biden economic disaster: American consumers are spending, and American exports are surging,” White House spokesman Kush Desai said. “President Trump built the greatest economy in the world in his first term, and he’s in the process of doing it all over again. Americans can count on benefitting from a historic economic boom in 2026.”

Gross domestic product is a broad measure of the goods and services produced across the economy. Economists had expected the economy to grow at a 3.2 percent annual rate after the second quarter’s 3.8 percent growth.

Prior to the inflation adjustment, the economy grew at an 8.2 percent rate.

...Donald Trump’s trade policies appear to have added to growth in the third quarter, as exports rose 8.8 percent while imports fell 4.7 percent. Exports add to GDP while imports, because they represent foreign production, are subtracted.

...Due to the government shutdown, this “initial estimate” actually combines data typically used for both the advance and second estimates, so it may be more reliable than usual initial readings.

Q2 2026 could be great

Scott Bessent is no the only one expecting a great 2026. "A lot of people are saying" that 2026 will be a strong economic year.

Whaaaaaat????

Democrat, congressman, idiot...
