1. Total overreaction by media. The very small retraction was already old news when it was reported.

GDP picked up already and was in the same report but nobody wants to acknowledge it. Oil and gas sales and gold have already boosted the numbers. I would much rather have our numbers with a solid financial community and a plan to rebuild our economy after US tariffs than be with the US economy that is only being boosted by AI data centres, a bubble that is soon to burst.
