BlueMann:
Seems Tuchel really rates Broja.

What made you say so

teeshet:
Pogba is not going to the worldcup

Manure fans will be happy after the way he jobbed them

LordAdam16:
Ibime does not play politics with his money. He'll accept it is a recession.

It wouldn't matter though. As far as democrats are concerned, no price is too high to pay to make certain Trump is not in the White House.

In November, they'll expect another 2020 election night "fortification" that'll magically preserve Democrat control of House and Senate.

-Lord

I don't play politics with economics but you do. As no President is responsible for the start or end of a business cycle. They are just lucky to be there at the start or middle of a cycle, or at the end of one. Same reason I always absolved George Bush of 2 recessions during his tenure. The world has been on a bullrun since 2009 fuelled by Fed printing money, and a major Covid fiscal response that accelerated the cycle to it's end. The cycle is simply over. If Trump is lucky, he would have skipped the hard part and return in 2024 when the cycle has started to turn upward, just like Clinton skipped the hard part of the Savings and Loans crisis and entered on the upturn, then handed over to Bush II just before the Tech bubble downturn.

Jeremi ah wait fa da NEBR ta announces

Leave it fa da experts peoples FOB niqqa

By da way. Jeremi ah Republikkan hack

Kikikikikikiki

Politics or not, 2 quarterly declines back to back has always been viewed as a recession. It is not a deep recession but the raw numbers for Q2 should give cause for concern for the future

Drenimarcus:
Why bring Russia here now, we are talking about the US. Can you post without insults? Work on that mate. August 12 noted.

I wasn't talking to you my friend. I was talking to a Putard who said Russia is thriving. If April, May and June was negative GDP, do you need a calculator to tell their Q2 would be negative?

Drenimarcus:
Yeah I agree I erred on the data but I was right on "recession" part eh?

It was a possibility but factually incorrect at the time of your post. Analysts estimates were for 0.5% growth so I only gave it a 40% chance of going negative

VeryWickedMan:
Lol
While Russia is flourishing

Russia GDP declined 4.9% YoY while you are celebrating USA 0.9% decline. Putin done turn your brain to pap. Come back on Aug12 when QoQ results are released.

Drenimarcus:
Any sane person living in the US knows the US is in recession. This just makes it official. Ibime how far?

You posted the below on June 29. Where did you get Q2 data on June 29? What you posted was revised Q1 data of -1.6%, revised from -1.5% and I corrected you. They do revise quarterly data monthly, even the result they posted today will be revised in August.

Drenimarcus:
US GDP QOQ FINAL

ACTUAL -1.6% �
FORECAST -1.5%
PREVIOUS -1.5%

US GDP (QoQ) has shrink twice which means officially in recession. You have data, search for the source mate.

OpenHeaven2019:
Ibime the US just entered a recession officially and this news didn’t have any major effect on the market as I was expecting.

Could the worst be over?

I believe market is thinking a recession will encourage Fed to stop raising rates and prioritise growth over curbing inflation. Few weeks ago, they were pumping Nasdaq on fears of a recession because they just want low interest rates that come with recession. It's not uhuru though. If job numbers start following the GDP which it would at some point over the next few months, then we would see major effect on market. I'm still in some short positions.

No, this is too much for Chelsea fans.

A classic clip

Chelsea will be stupid to block Alonso and Azi transfer to Barca because of agidi

Half our problem is not getting rid of deadwood at the right time

Kilishihunter:
That popp lady just be like their Andy Carroll, Just plant the ball on her head and she'll do the rest but omo what you said yesterday happened again, the French were too wasteful, 14 shots, only 2 on target, they really missed Katoko in front, This Germany too sef, na only them waka come? Only them want to continue colonizing europe like super falcons, Anyways I also tip England to win as they're obviously stronger, If they don't, make England FA just carry both the male and female team come naija for deliverance

England just need to stop them crossing. If they take out that Oberdorf in midfield, I don't think Germany will be able to get the ball to the wings to cross. Na that Oberdorf be the key

@ Kilishihunter

The French girls are out. Those Germans dey play like robot. Too much heading football, all of them resemble Alan Shearer. England suppose beat them sha

raumdeuter:
I agree with you that every currency is below the Dollar at this time, Euros for the first time since I have been following fell below the dollar, Pounds is 1.22 Dollars. Nigeria defending the Naira will wreck us quicker than anything else.


Meanwhile I have been waiting for you jare.
What is your guidance given the interest rate bump today? Whats the direction to go in the current market?

The 75 was expected given that was their previous guidance and they didn't give any indication to the contrary. If they were going to do 100, they would have indicated earlier as they don't like to shock markets. My long term outlook is still bearish till end of 2023,, but I think we will have a mini rally for the bulls in August as there are no calendar events to cause uncertainty. GDP print is tomorrow and inflation print is Aug 11, and Fed is going on holiday till September so I think the market will party small after inflation print on Aug11 until Fed return from holiday, unless inflation print is so disastrous as to make Fed call off their holiday. Anything under 10% and Fed will continue their holiday.

Every free floating currency is performing poorly against the dollar except those countries with foreign reserve to artificially prop against the dollar. Dollar is about the third best performing currency this year. That's because stockmarkets which have been pumped on steroids since the Quantitative Easing at the start of the pandemic are now selling those stocks into dollar. Marketcap of American companies is circa $40trln. If a quarter of that money flees, that's $10trln looking for a place to go - and a lot of it will go into dollar, some into bonds etc. Forget what you heard, Nigeria nor any third world country does not have enough foreign Reserve to keep up with the dollar. I believe like Nihilistjnr said, the rate of spending Emefiele was doing to keep dollar parity was becoming too much. For context, that money Emefiele was spending ($3bln every 2 months) is equivalent to $18bln a year if he continued, which is equivalent to half of FGs annual budget. Of course, Foreign Reserve does not make up part of the budget but the comparison to budget gives some context.

Almost every other country is struggling right now from losing ground on the dollar. Below is the US dollar index DXY against a basket of blue chip currencies.

Ogbeni shut up,u just Mumu die, no single company as left Russia without them nationalizing and continuing business themselves,even macdonald was bought by a Russian and Thier entire 800 shops there,in fact the man has started building additional 200 stores and expanding business. Gdp ko, idiot say 40% gdp of Russia a country whose main export sef barely account for 40% was wiped off because of Netflix and a bunch of sissies that paused operation still living full merchandise in Russia o. You dense no be small

A small mind can only think of McDonalds. Think of all the companies in Russia that no longer have Microsoft support. Macdonalds ko, McDonalds ni

Onigawara:
The IMF recently said Russia is doing MORE than expected despite the sanctions and have even said Russia's GPD is likely to shoot up by 2.6 https://www.euractiv.com/section/global-europe/news/russia-doing-better-than-expected-despite-sanctions-imf/

You and the dumb OP should cry harder

Mumu, they revised Russia's GDP up by 2.5% to minus 6% from minus 8.5%.

Show me any Western country that will see minus 6% in GDP and not call it an absolute catastrophe

drisham:
We'll be making a terrible mistake letting this guy go

It should be Werner or puli not Hakim going

Puli is better than all of them. Odoi, Ziyech and Werner should go

What a disappointment. I had high hopes for this guy when he signed

andrewbaba44:
Na everybody wey no come epl Dey fear for the physicality ,I am sure you are dembele PA to know about this, maybe you will tell me if epl is the only league in the world ?

I am sure if kante was playing in another other league and Chelsea bid for him and he rejected ,some of you will come and tell us how he is too short and won’t survive in the epl

It's not about height. Position on the pitch matters a lot, it's not a one-size fits all condemnation of small players. CM key physical need is the ability to press at speed and a small player can do that even better than a big player. At Centreback, height plus weight is important in EPL cos of a lot of aerial duels. For injury prone players like Dembele, the number of games and spacing in-between games is important for rest and recovery and EPL does not offer that due to no winter break, two domestic cups etc. And EPL plays through rainy and wet conditions in winter which increases chance of injury, plus the game is faster, adding again to injury risk

BlueRayDick:
3 weeks after the Kuje prison break by tertorists , people of Abuja and neighboring communities now live in palpable fear as predicted . afrodoc said the escaped criminals will certainly not lodge in hotels cooking off; rather they will be happy to actively return to crime immediately .

nihilistjnr how far? Shey u later make that Abuja trip ?

Abuja done cast. From where BH was operating in the surrounding states, it was only a matter of time

donstan18:
For who?

The way guys just dey quote mouth-watering sums for defenders these days, I know say Tuchel done brainwash boys into thinking spending these amounts on defenders is normal

PDPGuy:
I would place Lucy Bronze in a mens U-20 team cos she’s that good of a RB

Boss, 11 Lucy Bronzes cannot play a selection of players from this section of Nairaland, forget matter. I have a cousin who was on the fringes of Falcons and played for Rivers Angels and I know what we showed her on the pitch at the age of 13

Itsrm:
Obidients are now asking for Seuns head on twitter

They say he was asking questions like he was paid to ask.

Rather than admit PO had a terrible outing, they have turned on the poor guy who was simply doing his job.

Which Seun? Our boss Osewa?

EmmanuelScott1:
Don't worry about the exchange rate nah, you're paid in naira

Au contraire, Seankafor earns in dollars. He is not complaining

afrodoc2:
I like this your no insult policy.

I won't you to watch that video closely, preferably without sound. Tell me 1) if you think the tremor is worse in one hand or equal AND 2) also tell me if it is worse when he keeps it down and still or worse when he moves the hand.

What's your diagnosis doc? Make it plain for the people

Kilishihunter:
No vex it's lieke martens I wanted to speak on, I confused her with miedema I didn't watch the match though but I don't see how they're beating this English team, That squad is complete from head to toe, even the subs, Before the tournament the only team I felt could stop them was Spain due to the rise of Barca Femeni before putellas tore her ACL but you still saw how they were dominated for several parts of that game, Even though their squad is filled with many Lyon stars I don't see France winning

Yep, Spain was best placed to challenge and England struggled in that game but France have those Lyon girls and plenty of pace in their fullbacks and the black girls upfront. They win many 1v1 races and could trouble England with those duels

marti198:
If we are playing with a 4-2-2 then Broja and depay can both be in the squad with Broja coming off the bench if needed but we would need a DM and another defender. Definitely not kimpembe that guy no be am.

Depay is still a winger so even in 4-3-3, he can play two roles

Kilishihunter:
France that struggled to beat that Dutch team without miedema, They have good players from Lyon and psg Sha but their strength is mostly in the defense with that Renard lady, Germany have their weakest team in years, I think their England's coach wiegman won the last euros with the Dutch so I see no reason why she can't do it again for the hosts

Miedema played. I watched the whole match. France bullied them to sege and could have won that game 5 or 6 nil

Singapore1:
he is 70kg and the 70kg is being argued

Even his advertised height of 5 ft 10 looks suspect. Guy dey use that afro add inches

Kilishihunter:
If England no win this thing ehn, It'll be utterly shocking

France looked handy sha, but all these England wingers play like Fede Chiesa. I never thought I'd see women playing footie like this. Women's football has come a long way. Even defenders and goalkeepers are passing the ball around at the back

Capaldi:
Kasper Schmeichel leaving Leicester to Nice is a weird transfer.

Looked weird at first, but a 35 year old man going to enjoy life on the Cote d'Azur is very understandable especially as Nice have money and can probably afford to pay him well for the next 3 years, and his wife and family will enjoy the sunshine and lifestyle. Can't compare this to living in Leicester
