"The recession we've been through," Mr. Cutler said, "was as steep as anything we've seen since 1981 and 1982," which stands as the worst since World War II. "Everybody keeps comparing what just happened to the mild '90-'91 recession. That totally misses it."

National statistics are signaling recovery now, but Mr. Cutler worries that the data are too upbeat. While the Bush administration and many forecasters see a revival under way, he sees only "mild indications" of the beginning of an upturn. It will not be truly recognizable at Eaton, he said, until the fall. Even then, his managers will have incentives to be tightfisted and to shun the risk of overexpansion because the bust has been so painful.
