During a discussion with Chamath Palihapitiya at the All-In Summit 2024, Thiel suggested that while a downturn is imminent, it has been temporarily avoided due to significant government spending.<\/p>\n
Thiel criticized the current level of government stimulus as unsustainable, pointing to enormous budget deficits. He noted that the projected deficit for fiscal year 2024 had significantly increased from an initial estimate of $1.5 to $1.6 trillion, now expected to be around $400 billion higher.<\/p>\n
Thiel remarked that such high deficits at the peak of the economic cycle, rather than during a recession, indicate a troubling economic situation.<\/p>\n
