I believe a recession is unfolding in slow motion it will see attempts to get off the matt perhaps like right now housing is the bulwark of our consumer economy but it really doesnt address downward trending woes within technology factories even as housing showed life and perkiness, consumer confidence is declining again isnt it interesting how Consumer Confidence exhibits a hitch? Feb showed a jump up, but March took it back with a move down could it be a bear trap? I learned a few years ago to regard any chart from technical perspective whether Confidence, Housing Starts, NAPM mfg, Unemploymt Applns dunno about ConsConfidence bear trap with stocks having risen, I expect next month to show a rise in Confidence people are buying the 2ndHalf Recovery Theory I DONT BUY IT now with a new job next week, and a signing bonus, and a few good trades in a row, my confidence has risen heck, my father has arranged to fix me up with some dish former student (with two kids) but that does not deter me from watching this recession as it unfolds slowly GreenSnot now has embarked upon a last ditch approach he wants to rescue the NewEcon and its productivity enhancing engines and do so by ensuring no serious damage to OldEcon companies it may succeed for a time but Oldies are chock full of equipment, and NewEcon is chock full of inventory sorry SnotNose, you screwed up and the whole world knows it today some talking moronhead said "just the usual business cycle unfolding" yeah right !!! that cycle wouldve unfolded by itself last spring and summer in 2000 but needledick pencilneck Alan Douchebag had to SLAM THE BRAKES FOR 8 STRAIGHT MONTHS by the way, the FedFundsRate is STILL 80-100 BASIS POINTS HIGHER THAN the 3-month TBill yield THE FED IS STILL HITTING THE BRAKES, EVEN NOW / jw
