Krystal and Saagar make sense of the resiliency starting to be seen in US supply chains as concerns mount about whether goods will be available in time for Christmas

There will be deflation after the next recession
This show went down the toilet drain fast.
Back by popular demand! It's important to speak up!
“Inflation is always and a monetary phenomenon in the sense that it is and can be produced only by a more rapid increase in the quantity of money than in output.” Gas prices are also rising in the middle east fyi. Prices wont stop rising world wide unless the fed tightens.
Bet if everyone boycotted the holidays prices would magically fall
Overpriced Tofu for everyone!
Notice no one ever suggested buying things made in the USA? What ever happened to that?
GIVE THEM THE PINCH!!! This is how to curb/control inflation:
1. DO NOT accept low wages, DEMAND high ones. NEVER stop this, or you'll get eaten quietly.
2. DO NOT pay for high prices. Do ANYTHING you can right now to NOT buy anything, and find the more affordable versions of anything if it is a necessity.
As a European I find Americans complaining about $5/gallon weird when Western Europe has over $7/gallon (and has had this for years) – and GDP per capita is lower here…
Lies! Time to get the pitchforks
Because they were said to be fined $100 per container , they magically got it to work . There are no labor shortages . Companies are LYING about all the jobs !!!
I was doing Thanksgiving and will do Christmas no matter what the government or any so called dr's say.
Not going to cover that truck blasting through the Christmas parade in Wisconsin…
Heating oil went down $.10. Biggest sigh of relief so far this fall.
Good For John Deere workers, now hopefully the rest of us will find the strength to walk out of our jobs and stand up against corporate greed.
*******Just in Time was created by the Globalist******* Oh, by the way…the Globalist still don’t give a damn about you! Globalist are both Democratic and Republican and they are hell bent on extracting as much wealth from the US before they imploded this country!
The price of shipping containers are dropping because there are more containers than items to ship, not because things are getting back to normal.
wow. I could have done without the month long doomsday sensationalizing of the media (ya'll included Breaking Points). Also, here goes krystal again not telling us that companies gonna pass the "wage increases" on to (what's left of) the middle/uppermiddle class.
Doesn’t anyone know the true meaning of Christmas anymore has nothing to do with stuff
the men are private contracting as drivers. the women are private contracting in the self-broadcast adult entertainment industry.
Christmas is not about gifts and holiday. Grinch taught me that.
We should make some products in America then there wouldn't be a port backup 🤔 . It's not inflation It's price gouging.
Again, a real weakness of this show is you don't have a regular socialist economist (i.e. RIchard Wolff) on to give us the truth. Saagar's knowledge of economics is flawed.
The basic problem with America is we are an industrial nation without industry.
Like most Americans can afford x mas
Companies have been aggressively stocking up to make sure Christmas isn't cancelled. It would make sense inflation/supply chain issues would peak in September/October as a result of the aggressive buying of retailers and manufacturers. Look into warehouse demand, it's off the charts and they are aggressively building new ones. Expect an inflection down in supply chain costs
Krystal is in favor of labor shortages. Guess she’s in favor of Companies passing down all of the increased costs of production due to new salary increases and benefits to workers. Thanks Krystal. Like I don’t pay enough money out of my check in taxes already now I have to pay for peoples raises also. Typical leftist mentality.
they bought santa a long time ago
Sorry but I don't care about inflation in China.
