One would think after five years of economic misery under Obama these media
clowns would lose the “unexpectedly” shtick. Next thing you’ll know they
’ll tell us ObamaCare unexpectedly failed.
Confidence among U.S. consumers unexpectedly declined in November to a
seven-month low as Americans grew more pessimistic about the labor-market
outlook.
The Conference Board’s index fell to 70.4 from a revised 72.4 a month
earlier that was stronger than initially estimated, the New York-based
private research group said today. The median forecast in a Bloomberg survey
of 78 economists called for a November reading of 72.6.
That was then, continued.
“The economy just has not performed very well this year and has been
disappointing relative to what most people were hoping for and expecting
through the course of the year,” said Stephen Stanley, chief economist at
Pierpont Securities LLC in Stamford, Connecticut. “It’s one thing when you
have one or two years into the recovery and things aren’t progressing in
the job market, but here we are four-plus years in.”
Maybe Obama should pivot again to the economy. Oh, wait. |
