To what degree is the US economy isolated from the world's madness? There has to be a breaking point right?

We’re at full employment.
Profits are booming.
Yes, the rate is slowing...but this expansion and the bull market just won’t die.

Breaking point will be when Fed goes the wrong direction, barely investment grade corporate bonds go bust, and inventories go through the roof because demand sluffs off.

Until then, block it all out...don’t fight the Fed and stay balanced.

Hi All... URGENTLY NEED some suggestions.

I've got a job offer in australia for 120$ Aud. Pay is good but they reached out to me via LinkedIn now all interviews done. If i accept the offer they will start my visa process. But I couldn't find the company in Google or Glassdoor reviews. It's a new startup kind of consultancy with 10-15 PPL. I can only see few linkedin posts for that company.

Is it advisable to proceed? They're not asking any money from me they are sponsoring for visa. Is it safe
