What if? 10 Items that can go right

What if

The next president is elected and the checks and balances system that makes the USA so wonderful works…. just as it has for decades
Inflation picks up to 2-2.5%
Employment tightens and the unemployment rate dropped below 5%
Short term interest rates are raised to 2%
Employers begin increasing wages
Businesses began investing into new projects
The Millennial’s began buying homes and raising families
The Federal Reserve began not re-investing their holdings and let them naturally run off, thereby decreasing the debt level ….eventually to zero
The rest of the world see accelerating growth
Oil stabilizes

Just as we say never go “All in or all out”, never being too negative is healthy too!

If we bat only 50% on these (some have already occurred), the future is pretty bright…just saying !
