Tip of the iceberg.

Not just Trek, not just bikes…luxury toys, RV’s, Auto’s - houses -

Absolutely everything is priced accordingly to match 2 full time incomes and mass amounts of credit/debt.

There is no more “up”, there is no more (well very little) to extract from the general population.

Trek, other brands… how do they clear overstock without tanking the prices of new models? How do they pay their vendors/suppliers/manufacturers? And how do all of them react and survive after some of their biggest customers go belly up. And so on and so on down the line…

Multiply that by all the other industries that are in the same boat… pop. The auto industry is a house of cards- once again…

I fully expect a pop coming soon, a big pop.
