BY THE NUMBERS
Using the vast database of G-101 SPM AI algorithm to answer a simple question, we asked:
What are the economic implications in the USA of deporting undocumented people?
The algorithm identified a serious, unintended consequence with a subjective probability of SPM 89.12 tag [1] that a RECESSION[2] is likely in 2026 and will disproportionally affect the Middle Class.
THE EVENT: President Trump made mass deportations a signature campaign issue. In the days since he was sworn in, ICE agents have conducted high-profile raids and sent military and charter planes carrying immigrants back to their countries of origin.
THE FACTS:
As of 2024, the SPM database estimated that there were 14.3 million unauthorized immigrants in the United States.
As a group, undocumented immigrants paid $161 billion in state and local taxes in 2023, a sum equal to what the Department of the Interior announced on February 8, 2024, of $157 billion then-President Biden’s Investing in America agenda to restore our nation’s lands and waters through locally led, landscape-scale restoration projects. The funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law will support 206 ecosystem restoration projects in 48 states, Washington, D.C., and the U.S.
Other truths according to SPM tag data: More than half of undocumented immigrants have been in this country for more than a decade; 46 percent have been to college and 27 percent have a bachelor’s degree or higher; [3] 79 percent of undocumented residents in USA were in the work force, compared with 71 percent of USA citizens born in this country.

[1] G-101 SPM AI algorithm is an investment/enterprise predictor that gathers data from 143 preset sources and presents the values as SPM matrix integers. To date, over 15,000 questions were asked the algorithm, of which 84.7% “best guesses” were accurately predicted. The database tracks over investment/economic components and other data subsets with each one carrying a "floating" SPM tag. The higher the value the greater the subjective probability of the collective data being accurate. The net results are dedicated by the issuance of an auxiliary SPM tag.
SPM 89.12 tag refers to the likelihood that the tag measure 89.12% as subjective probability that the “best guess” will occur.
[2] Recession is a period of significant economic decline that lasts more than a few months. It's characterized by: (1) Weak output: A decline in real GDP (gross domestic product), which is the value of all goods and services produced in a country , (2) Rising unemployment: An increase in the number of people who are unemployed , (3) Low spending: A decrease in household spending and business investment , (4) High debt: An increase in the number of people and businesses that are unable to pay back loans , and (6) Asset bubbles: A period when the price of certain assets, like stocks, bonds, or real estate, spikes and then crashes , (7) Inflation: When the cost of living becomes too high for many people to afford
[3] From 2000 to 2024, the share of people who are 65 and over grew 61 percent, 19 times as fast as the population overall.

CONCLUSION
To protect yourself from a pending recession, focus on building a substantial emergency fund, paying off high-interest debt, reviewing and adjusting your budget, diversifying your investments, and considering ways to potentially increase your income or develop new skills to maintain job security.
Key strategies:
Emergency fund: Aim to save 3-6 months' worth of living expenses in a readily accessible account to cover unexpected income loss during a recession.
Debt management: Prioritize paying off high-interest debt like credit card balances to free up cash flow and minimize interest payments.
Budget review: Regularly assess your spending habits and identify areas where you can cut back to conserve money.
Investment diversification: Spread your investments across different asset classes to mitigate risk and minimize losses if one sector experiences a downturn. See: https://stocktwits.com/G101SPM
Skill development: Enhance your professional skills through training or education to improve your job market competitiveness and potential for career advancement
Income diversification: Explore options for generating additional income through side hustles or part-time work
Credit score monitoring: Regularly check your credit score to ensure accuracy and identify any potential issues that could impact your ability to borrow money during a recession.
Review your investment portfolio: Evaluate your current investments and consider shifting to more conservative options if necessary.
Be proactive: Don't wait until a recession hits to start preparing.
Live within your means: Avoid unnecessary spending and focus on responsible financial habits.
Stay informed: Monitor economic indicators and news to understand potential recessionary trends.
