US Credit Card Debt Pops $1 Trillion

Sharing is Caring!

These people tell you they’re creating a utopia of mutilated kids, endless war, and blacks going buckwild.

Meanwhile in the real world:

Credit card balances in the US rose by $45 billion in the second quarter, surpassing $1 trillion for the first time ever, the New York Federal Reserve Bank reported on Tuesday.

Delinquency rates have now returned to pre-Covid levels, the bank’s economists said, noting that the two most recent quarters “appear to show some stabilization.”

See also  As of March 31, 2024, three of the largest U.S. banks had a combined total of $1.832 trillion in loans outstanding to giant Hedge Funds.

Other balances, which include retail credit cards and other consumer loans, as well as auto loans increased by $15 billion and $20 billion, respectively.

The quarterly report shows that student loan balances fell by $35 billion to reach $1.57 trillion, while mortgage balances were largely unchanged at $12.01 trillion.

Total household debt jumped by $16 billion to $17.06 trillion in the second quarter of 2023.

See also  55 cents of every dollar spent in August was borrowed, further inflating the $2 trillion deficit. If a recession hits, this borrowing could spiral out of control.

Does this feel like a utopia to you?

Is this a sign of good national health?

Do you understand something very simple: that this debt increases the costs of everything?

Did you not learn that?

That when debt is easy, it is like a balloon in society’s stomach, inflating the prices of all assets?

Is this what you wanted from your utopia?
