ha.....no rate hikes in 2010. If you think otherwise then you don't know Bernanke. He envisions himself a Great Depression expert and in his view the mistake was to cut off the money spiggot too soon. Stock market recovery is not a job recovery. No new jobs and people cutting back spending.

Mish, the recovery is going to be a lot stronger than people think and Urban "gateway" (NY, SF, Boston, Seattle, LA proper, etc.) housing is going to have a V shaped recovery. Your blog will get more visits if you begin to talk about the Fed's exit strategy and rate hikes in 2010. You are entitled to believe whatever nonsense you want. But spare me the sap abut telling me what the economy is going to do. Asking me to post horseshit I do not believe in would be insanity. I get 1.6 million page hits a month and personally I do not give a damn if predicting your vision of insanity would get me more hits. Here is my relative traffic. gongol.com I got there by telling what I believe not by preaching crap about what I thought people wanted to hear. If you believe in V shaped recovery you have holes in your head where your brain should be. Mish

I posted once here and this is probably my last post, but I totally agree with you. Mish was right in the past but is on the wrong train for the future. He doesn't write about Baltic dry, INDIA, CHINA, BRAZIL... and all other important things! The times right now are POST crash times. Be "aware" what will bring next year, when retail investors in USA, starts buying shares again. Current rally is due to short covering, wall of fear etc. What to buy if not stocks? Real estate? Cash? Bonds? You must be joking. Put DJIA in GOLD (from 1870 and ignore cornering the market in 1980) and you will see where we are. At the LOWER RANGE. Of course markets will not go straight up but the CRASH already happend!It is just stupid to write or thing about bad things that will happen in the future if there are so many good things happening every day and will be happening in the future! The world is going forward but of course some people will stay in the past! It is a natural process in nature. Short story: - Profits are good in times of big government deficits - 50-60% of profits from US companies comes from abroad - Some countries (3-4 billion people) didnt have recession and they have low levels of debt ...

LondonGuy; Mish, the recovery is going to be a lot stronger than people think and Urban "gateway" As a person close to one of those gateways (Seattle), I remain shocked almost at the robust economic activity. It looks as active here at any time during the housing gogo years - but still governments are out of money. Especially local governments that committed too much are now finding a crunch that looks to have no end in it. Layoffs keep coming in these governments. It is a conundrum I don't have an answer to. steve
