HOW TO INVEST IN GOLD: Gold IRA Investing


The CEO of Fannie Mae, Hugh R. Frater, recently issued a warning about a potential economic recession in the United States. Speaking at a forum in Washington D.C. hosted by the Mortgage Bankers Association, Frater noted that there are a number of risks looming over the American economy, including trade tensions with China, an aging workforce, and declining productivity growth.

Frater’s warning is significant because Fannie Mae, a government-sponsored enterprise that guarantees mortgages and plays a key role in the U.S. housing market, is often seen as a bellwether for broader economic conditions. The fact that Frater is raising the alarm about a potential recession is therefore likely to cause concern among economists and policymakers.

Frater’s warning comes at a time when there are a number of other indicators suggesting that the U.S. economy is facing headwinds. For example, the yield curve, which measures the difference between short-term and long-term interest rates, has been inverted for several months. Historically, inversions of the yield curve have frequently preceded economic downturns.

There are also concerns about slowing growth in the global economy. The International Monetary Fund recently downgraded its forecast for global growth for the second time this year, citing trade tensions and other factors.

Despite these concerns, there are some reasons to be optimistic about the U.S. economy. Unemployment remains low and consumer confidence is high. Additionally, the Federal Reserve has cut interest rates twice this year, which could help to stimulate growth.

Nevertheless, Frater’s warning should be seen as a “clarion call” for policymakers and businesses to take action to address the risks facing the economy. This could include measures to boost productivity, such as investments in education and training, or efforts to address trade tensions with China and other countries.

Ultimately, whether or not the U.S. economy enters into a recession in the near future will depend on a range of factors, including global economic conditions and the actions of policymakers. However, Frater’s warning serves as a reminder that there are significant risks on the horizon, and that action must be taken to address them.

    Well, i do have my reservations about the economic crisis. Wall Street pitched so-called quality stocks with high profitability and low debt, as a kind of insurance against whatever the economy might throw at you. Quality stocks have underperformed the S&P500 this year, My $650K portfolio is down by approximately 20%, any recommendations to scale up my ROI before retirement will be highly appreciated.

  10. John Feder

    When this administration is saying recession, I would plan on it being a depression, I would say worse imo. Inflation wasn't transitory, the laptop was Hunter's, Truth Ministry was limiting free speech,. Basically everything they have said has been the opposite.

    recession fears mount on Wall Street and inflation remains well above the Fed's 2% target, some of the top commentators in markets, business, and economics have been sounding off on just how bad they think the next downturn might be — and how far stocks may have to fall. I need ideas and advice on what investments to make to set myself up for retirement, my goal is to have a portfolio of at least $850k at the age of 60.

    You three knuckleheads couldn't be more wrong. The Feds waited too long to act. There is too much consumer debt, and too much bus debt. The Feds are doing what they need to do by raising rates, the problem is nobody wants to pay the piper. A massive reset is coming.

    Several of the biggest market experts have been voicing their opinions on exactly how awful they think the next downturn would be, and how far equities may have to go, as recession draws closer and inflation continues well above the Fed's 2% objective. I'm trying to build a portfolio of at least $850k by the time I'm 50, therefore I need suggestions on what investments to make.
