Wall Street sounds alarm over strain throughout car lending market as experts warn of potential risks for wider economy

The Guardian
For those following the US #economy this is a disturbing chart. #Debt is weighing us down, all of us. individual debt and national debt. This, at a time when the #TrumpAdministration is set on a massive tax cut for the rich and at the same time making life difficult for student loan holders as well as the rest of his that rely on our credit cards. Defaults, especially auto loans, are going up as is overall debt. Looks to me like we’re in trouble. What do you think? #economics #finance #CreditCardDebt #AutoLoans #RepublicansDidThis

"Auto loan delinquency is officially at its highest level of all time.

Add another straw to the camel’s back.

Eventually, one of these insignificant straws, will cause the entire camel to collapse."
