Credit Card Losses Soar to Heights Unseen Since the Great Financial Crisis

Goldman Sachs reports that credit card companies are facing their fastest rate of losses since the 2008 recession. With current losses at 3.63% and U.S. credit card debt exceeding $1 trillion, these losses are expected to rise to 4.93%. Analyst Ryan Nash finds this trend unusual as it’s occurring outside of a recession, and he predicts the peak won’t be reached until late 2024 or early 2025.
