CNBC poll: Trump approval on his handling on the economy plunges 13 net points to 42-50 (was 48-43), marking only the second time Trump has been underwater on the economy.
Impeachment is taking up the headlines, but voters losing confidence in the economy is a big deal for 2020
Whoops! Trump or the WH deleted the official statement from the WH trashing Powell, that's why the link doesn't work.

Q3 Will See Notices of Layoffs and/or Other Bad Economic News On a Daily Basis. Today the global Fortune 100 manufacturing company I work for announced an early retirement plan coupled with layoffs as a response to falling sales attributed to Tariff/Trade policy. John Deere has been laying off workers since September because of falling sales. Farmers don't need their equipment if they aren't selling their crops. Retail outlets will also fall victim to job cuts, store closings or worse Bankruptcy like Forever 21.
