Time and again stocks outperform dramatically after periods of panic, with very low expectations and low inflation.. It is the last part that will be the problem IMHO but if inflation can get contained here and interest rates stay low party on then. Of course they can hope to continue to under report CPI, grow MZM well into double digits and watch oil prices drop as the housing markets stabilize..anything can happen.. My thought has been some form of hyperinflation will be the penalty (or blessing for some) on any global recovery down the road making this cycle different than any in the past compounded and fueled in part by attempts to alleviate the great credit crunch..

The last weekly leading index (WLI) from ECRI was also not pretty -- -6.4, the lowest in almost 2 months. Still firmly in recession territory.
