More good news: "The Federal Reserve just released the latest consumer credit numbers showing that U.S. consumer borrowing slowed sharply in September. Consumer credit expanded $6.5 billion in September, while the August number was revised downward from $13.4 to $12.3 billion. Analysts had been expecting a jump of $11 billion for September. The Fed said that both revolving and non-revolving credit growth slowed markedly in September, a fact that could indicate some slight consumer unwillingness to accumulate debt at the pace seen earlier this year."
