Investors look to shoppers, home sales, jobless data.










Investors look to shoppers,
home sales, jobless data

Summary:
Hoping that just because people are jobless, it wont stop the production of sales at Christmas time even though it’s about to be the end of the year. Matt Lloyd says “The economy is recovering, but not in every area”, in this statement people are worried that the economy is still at a down fall with the money issue. Concerns over the direction of the dollar are with the federal reserve raising interest rates could put more pressure on stocks throughout the end of the year. Making anxiety run high though the economy with the increase of the dollar amount, since Christmas is approaching fast they are hoping that people will spend money to help jump start the economy and get the stock to where it needs to be. The only problem is that no one has any money to lack of jobs in the United States. In this article they are saying that since this year has been such a rollercoaster with money issues that they wont be surprised to see such dramatic degrees in sales at the end of the year.



Relationship with Psychology:
Having to worry about everything now days, Anxiety can fall upon this category of subjects. The people in this article are developing fear that the stock market will eventually crash due to no money coming in and which will decrease trade and will cause the price to go up on everything especially what we bring in from other countries. So many people today end up with some kind of disorder because of so much worrying due to the decrease in the economy which is why I chose anxiety for this subject.

  1. I can agree that I personally have had anxiety since I lost my job in September. Keeping up with all the bills is stressful enough without having the holiday's coming up.

  2. I can agree that money woes has affected more people than the government expected. Since I lost my job and money hasn't been easy to come by I am actually taking medicine for anxiety because it is even more stressful when you have kids that come before yourself.
