The Business News Headlines 21 February 2025

We kick things off on this Friday talking about you and your thoughts about the U.S. economy. In a word you are not happy and that concern tanked Wall Street for a second day in a row.  We'll get to that story first.  Also, should you want to follow us on social media you can find us all day on Twitter or "X" @IOB_NewsHour and on Instagram. Facebook? Sure were there too.  And our website is just a click away where you can scroll through all of our newscasts. Here's what we've got for you today and all in under 11 minutes:

• You are not pleased and we'll detail why;
• Home sales slumped in January we'll share the numbers;
• A lawsuit that targets pregnant women is allowed to go forward;
• Ford is recalling vehicles. What and why coming up today;
• A deeper dive into your thoughts about the economy;
• The Wall Street Report (it's ugly);
• And, job seekers are also feeling less optimistic.
