Bill, the government data are always lagging. In June I posted on the Chicken Page that we are entering a period of some sort of stagflation and we did as the GDP growth is slowing down and inflation is not.

IMHO in a month or two inflation will slow down also and we may start a jolly ride to the inevitable deflation cycle. From data I collect in NYC area real estate prices are topping out (yes I know RE are not in those statistics).

Personally I anticipate a substantial slowdown in economic activity due to the elimination of all the Y2K related work and capital outlays.

Cetainly interesting times.

Bill, i agree that Friday's jobs report doesn't change much...but in terms of the market it's all about perception, not reality.

Bill, we have not seen much follow through so far today.

the 3.2 A/d numbers were pretty good on Friday.
