Subject: 2016 Predictions

Written By: CatwomanofV on 12/26/15 at 11:25 am

Well folks, it is that time again for everyone to make their predictions for upcoming new year-whether it be pop culture, politics, science, or anything else.


My BIG prediction for 2016 is that Bernie will win the nom & go one to win the general election. (Ok, even if I am wrong it will be either Bernie or Hillary that will win the general election.)

Most of 2016 will still be mid 2010's culture, but during the Fall of 2016 the transition out of mid 2010's culture into late 2010's culture will begin to happen. Hilary Clinton will win the presidential election. The NFC Championship game will be the Carolina Panthers and NY Giants, in which the winner will end up defeating the eventual AFC Champ to be crowned as Super Bowl champs. The Cleveland Cavaliers and LeBron James will get revenge on the Golden State Warriors and Stephen Curry in the NBA Finals with a game 7 thriller. The Legend of Tarzan will be a huge movie in the box office.

I think either Ted Cruz or Marco Rubio wins the nomination and the republicans win because the economy experiences a significant slowdown in 2016. Hilary is too damaged of a politician to get into the White House in my opinion. The federal reserve will cut interest rates to negative for the first time and will launch QE4. I will hopefully have a better year than this year(not the worst year I've had *looks at 2013*) but it's been one of great change and transition. I hope I have the same friends by the end of the year as I'm finally in a good place. Pop culture will be in a limbo from early 2016 until mid 2016 and start really transitioning around September or October of 2016.

American Eagle isn't cool anymore, and H&M is crap. Both Uniqlo and Gap offer timeless, basic clothing. They are not trendy.

Regarding brick and mortar stores, you can always use their website. And Millennials are not past their prime. There are still millions of them that Uniqlo can make a profit out of.
