Analyst: The impact of this US government shutdown on the economy exceeds that of the 2018-19 shutdown

Jinse Finance reported that a brief analysis by Anderson Economic Group LLC indicated that the economic impact of the current longest U.S. government shutdown in history will significantly exceed that of the 2018-2019 shutdown. Its full effects have yet to be fully revealed. The company's principal and CEO, Patrick Anderson, stated: "We won't see official government statistics for at least a month, but the private sector information we currently have shows that the impact of the 2025 shutdown is more severe than the last shutdown that ended in January 2019." The company pointed out that both beer and automobile sales declined in October. Automobile sales fell by 4% compared to September, while beer sales dropped by 6%. Anderson added, "When beer sales go down, you know things are not looking good."
