The American public is bracing for something ugly, according to Charles Payne of Fox Business. The business news commentator says that the economy is in a "very, very dangerous place."
Payne cites a number of factors that he believes are pointing to an impending economic downturn. First, he notes that consumer confidence is at its lowest level in nearly two years. Second, he points to the fact that job growth has slowed sharply in recent months. Finally, he notes that inflation is beginning to pick up.
All of these factors, Payne argues, are likely to lead to an increase in interest rates. And that, in turn, could lead to a financial crisis.
Payne is not the only one who is predicting an economic downturn. A number of other commentators have also warned that the American economy is heading for trouble.
But Payne's warning is particularly alarming because he is a respected voice in the business community. His opinion carries a lot of weight.
And his warnings should be taken seriously. The American economy is indeed in a very precarious position. And it could get a lot worse before it gets better.

just a tiny bit of red ink all around
nine down on the Dow 24 down on the
NASDAQ four down on the S P that's not
much movement some red Charles Payne
with me this morning I I got a feeling
that this Market rally not today's but
the recent reality is on the back of A.I
is that right the vast majority of it
because it's only 15 stocks and most of
those stocks are in or around listen
Nvidia is the number one winner this
year meta is not necessarily AI but
believe me they'll talk AI That's where
they want to go Google Google's made
this 20 move uh this big move this week
because they're back in the AI game they
got 40 000 Engineers that finally might
be getting it right well can I interrupt
you for one second tell me what you
think I bought Google yesterday after
the five percent run up Sir no I'm on
Google as well laughing at me no no it's
ironic just about two weeks ago I had my
subscribers by Google as well they're
going to be formidable for they get 92
percent of searches right this thing
learns on itself yep that's the
advantage they have over Microsoft and
everyone else it's a learning machine so
as people Google things their AI will be
able to catch up and surpass quickly
wait a second I've switched from Google
search to Bing
well you already have Microsoft they use
AI on Bing and I notice it I mean it
seems to recognize my searches more it
moves me quickly to it it's amazing it
really I mean this this whole AI thing
is really really amazing there's a firm
based out of Canada that says now we're
at 50 50 whether or not the only
humankind at some point and they're
serious about this this is how much of a
threat it is but let's make money first
and then we'll worry about survival
that's it cyber security that's another
area which seems to be lifting off it's
AI because people need security when
you've got AI running loose you know
it's a hell of a combination right
imagine AI in the wrong hands I don't
know that there's any systems out there
that can really compete and we always
know that the the bad guys are one step
ahead anyway but to be one step ahead
with this sort of a tool this sort of a
weapon it's scary stuff so yeah that's
almost every business out there is going
to have to retrofit or enhance their
security to a major degree have you got
a cyber security stock that you that you
use your subscribers Palo Alto networks
yeah yeah and and fortunate ftnt has
been coming on real strong as well okay
Regional banks are they another now
another threat and they're mostly down
this morning it's not a monuments a
crash that's not happening but is are
they still a threat I don't think
they've ever been a uh I don't think
there's ever been a systemic risk they
built that up so they can have an excuse
to bail out the depositors of Silicon
Valley Bank not Silicon Valley Bank but
their depositors billionaires who donate
to the Democratic party okay and that's
where they blew this whole thing because
they have tried to Rally around the
notion that you're going to be selective
with respect to bailouts and then
treasury secretary Yellen made things
worse she went on out there a couple of
times and just said yeah certain Banks
we will take care of all depositors in
other words the big Banks and so they
have actually really make this a lot
worse than it had to be by the way your
my take was great and you said you have
a sense that things are falling apart I
do I do about 30 minutes ago to
University of Michigan sentimentary came
out it's crashing so so bad really yeah
I didn't see that you're in expectations
for the economy plummeted 23 from last
month from last month whoa that's huge
it's in free fall the American public is
bracing for something ugly and
ironically they don't see inflation
going away inflation expectations
actually edged up so the American public
thinks inflation is going to be embedded
with a combination of those who you know
of recessionary pressures like the
ultimate one-two punch
very interesting I'm glad you brought
that to us I missed that I appreciate it
just came out just 30 minutes 30 minutes
ago I still missed it all right Charles
