Peter, you are so amazingly good at data analysis. Each paragraph shows your genius at exposing the superficial data and peeling back the layers. I am endlessly impressed.
I’m glad Trump has some numbers to shore up his campaigns. Even if he ends up being substantially wrong, his numbers continue to destroy the anti-Trump forces who have been looking like idiots, with their cries of “tariffs will cause huge inflation!” and other Trump Derangement Syndrome symptoms.
I suspect the big economic story of 2026 will be one of contagion, ripple effects, and dominoes from the rest of the world. Half of the world is now seriously unstable, politically and economically. Whether you look at China, Russia, Iran, the EU, Venezuela, or large parts of Africa, there are so many places teetering on the edge of massive change that the effects on the U.S. economy will be substantial and unpredictable. We are in for an extremely interesting 2026! (Yes, as in the ancient curse of “May you live in interesting times”!)
I’m looking forward to your genius articles about it all, Peter. Thank you in advance!
Thanks, but it's not genius. It's more like Asperger's coupled with a slight case of OCD.
I will agree with you that 2026 is going to be the year of the Black Swan. It's not just that things are popping off around the globe. The order in which they pop off will impact how badly they pop off.
Oh, it’s genius. As someone who has endured continuous relationship experience with Asperger’s and OCD for many decades - long before there were such kinds of diagnosis - I can confidently say that you have genius, and that makes all the difference. You have a high degree of perception and ability to learn, to change. Peter, you really are a much better man than you give yourself credit for. I envy the woman who wins your heart.

I doubt folks have stocked up on enough popcorn.
