Click here to read our current Economic Forecast – July 2024 Economic Forecast: One Recession Flag Removed But Little Indication The Economy Is Strengthening
Today’s Economic Releases Compiled by Steven Hansen, Publisher:
The number of CEO changes at U.S. companies surged 97% to 234 in June from 119 in May. It is up 98% from 118 CEO exits recorded in the same month last year. The perspective from Andrew Challenger, Senior Vice President of Challenger, Gray & Christmas, Inc:
Leaders are anticipating a sea change as we enter the second half of this year, perhaps politically, but certainly technologically. New leadership is often necessary during periods of change.
The advance estimate of 2Q2024 Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual rate of 3.1% year-over-year. In the first quarter, real GDP increased 2.9% year-over-year. The increase in real GDP primarily reflected increases in consumer spending, private inventory investment, and nonresidential fixed investment. Imports, which are a subtraction in the calculation of GDP, increased. On the other hand, inflation marginally worsened with the implicit price deflator rose to 2.6% year-over-year from last quarter’s 2.4%. Advance estimates can be significantly different than the “final” GDP growth numbers. As I have previously stated – inflation is not going away.
New orders for manufactured durable goods in June 2024 declined 10.2% year-over-year from the 1.5% decline last month The decline can be laid on civilian aircraft (Boeing) but there were no bright spots as manufacturing continues to fade.

Europe’s Power Prices Could Rise as France Curbs Electricity ExportsFrance, the biggest net electricity exporter in Europe, plans to limit power exports to neighboring countries, which could lead to higher prices in other European power markets such as Italy, Switzerland, Belgium, and Germany. France, which derives about 70% of its electricity from nuclear energy, returned last year to the top spot of Europe’s net power exporters, as its nuclear fleet returned from maintenance and domestic demand was lower, analysts at Montel EnAppSys said early this year.

Rystad: OPEC’s Oil Reserves are Much Lower Than Officially ReportedRystad Energy’s latest research shows global recoverable oil reserves held largely steady at around 1,500 billion barrels, down some 52 billion barrels from our 2023 analysis. Of this year-over-year decrease, 30 billion barrels are due to one year of production, and 22 billion barrels are mostly due to downward adjustments of contingent resources in discoveries. The largest downward revisions are seen in Saudi Arabia, where development priorities have shifted from offshore capacity expansions to onshore infill drilling.

US Doctors Stunned By Number Of Gaza Children With Headshot WoundsIsraeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has called Israel the “most moral army in the world,” but a high volume of deeply troubling wounds seen by American surgeons volunteering in Gaza is casting doubt on that claim. Dr. Mark Perlmutter, an American surgeon with heavy catastrophe-zone experience, is among those stunned by the civilian devastation they’ve recently witnessed in Gaza, and especially by a high volume of what appear to be precision rifle-fire wounds on children — including toddlers.
Perlmutter (second from left) with the volunteer medical team that spent few weeks in Gaza (Photo: Dr. Feroze Sidhwa via Politico) “All of the disasters I’ve seen, combined – 40 mission trips, 30 years, Ground Zero, earthquakes, all of that combined – doesn’t equal the level of carnage that I saw against civilians in just my first week in Gaza,” Dr. Mark Perlmutter, an orthopedic surgeon and vice president of the In … Read more at: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/us-doctors-stunned-number-gaza-children-headshot-wounds |

The SEC’s Climate Disclosure Rule Is A Dark Cloud Over Energy AbundanceAuthored by Stone Washington via RealClearEnergy, The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) climate disclosure rule posts real problems for public companies. The SEC’s mission is to do facilitate capital formation and maintain market efficiency, but for the first time in its 90-year history, the SEC has injected political risk factors into its traditionally principles-based disclosure framework.
Leading up to the new rule, the SEC buckled under pressure from left-wing special interests to impose the first environmental disclosure mandate on public companies. If the SEC’s final rule is allowed to go into effect by the courts, it will be a financial disaster for the public markets.

Trump: Israel Needs To End War Quick & Have Better ‘Public Relations’The day before Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is expected to meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at Mar-A-Lago, the former US president has a message for Israel: end the war quickly and bring the hostages home as soon as possible. Trump is urging a quick end the conflict, and in a rare moment of criticism said that Israel must better manage its “public relations.” The war should stop quickly “because they are getting decimated with this publicity, and you know Israel is not very good at public relations,” Trump said a new Fox interview.
Via AP Trump has repeatedly blamed Biden’s foreign policy weakness for enabling the whole crisis in the first place, having previously asserted that the Hamas terror attack on Israel that killed 1,200 people and … Read more at: https://www.zerohedge.com/political/trump-israel-needs-end-war-quick-have-better-public-relations |
