my leading indicators are mostly down:

- consumer confidence is down
- debt levels are suffocating for households
- trade gap is widening and out of control
- federal deficits are escalating
- all Fed Monetization is going straight to build China's economy
- dollar is in decline
- foreign Central Banks in Asia are starting to abandon USTBonds
- Arab petrodollars are boycotting the US financial markets
- interest rates can go no lower
- REFI boom is done dead gone outtahere
- investor distrust is growing leaps & bounds
- stock indexes show no ability to get up
- public doubts Wall Street pundits and analysts
- IPO's are nonexistent
- capex is extinct
- mfg capacity utilization is below typical recession levels
