Weekly Indicators for December 22 – 26, 2025
– by New Deal democrat
My ”Weekly Indicators” post is up at Seeking Alpha.
The year ended with a magnification of several trends that have been a theme all year: the US $ is down almost 10%, largely responsible for a nearly 15% rise in commodity prices, while consumer spending ended with a bang as well.
“Commerce Department data released just before the holiday showed that US gross domestic product rose at an unexpectedly robust 4.3% in the third quarter, with the American consumer to thank for it. That might be enough to power one final miniature stock market rally to end 2025. AB“
As usual, clicking over and reading will bring you up to the virtual moment as to all these trends, and reward me with a penny or two for my efforts.
