0:00.0 | Hello, fellow, Robo Capitals, hope you're well. |
0:03.0 | So huge news today, GDP comes out, and it is a negative. |
0:12.2 | Point three. |
0:13.7 | I think expectations for a positive point four. |
0:18.2 | But let's shoot straight over to CNBC and check this out. And it is true. There is a lot of nuance in |
0:25.1 | this report. It's not just the headline number. So let's get into the details right now. We're |
0:32.1 | going to shoot over to CNBC. U.S. economy shrank 0.3%. That was a negative 0.3% number in the first quarter is Trump |
0:41.2 | policy uncertainty weighed on businesses. Of course, the mainstream media is going to blame it on |
0:46.8 | Trump. No surprise there. Now, here is where they start to get into the nuance that is absolutely |
0:51.9 | important to understanding kind of what's going on beneath the |
0:55.9 | hood because obviously the real question is is this an outlier or is this the first quarter of a |

1:39.1 | trade surplus or deficit or is it goods and services. That's actually an interesting question. So we'll get |
1:46.5 | into that in just a moment. I'm sure we're going to look at a couple different articles here, not just |
1:50.6 | CNBC. So I'm sure they will dive into further details here. But the report proved the bottom line |
1:57.9 | there is you deduct the if we have more imports than exports that's going to be |
2:05.6 | a negative drag on GDP so that's where it's really important to look beneath the hood here so of course |
2:11.6 | if this is the beginning of recession you got to talk about what the fed is going to do next and as |
2:16.2 | you guys know from watching this channel i've've just been looking at the two-year. |
2:20.9 | And I'm like, yeah, the Fed's probably going to follow that. |
