Yep, recession over

You think many businesses have hit bottom? Wait till July-Sept...

My youngest daughter manages a bank.
As of yesterday she was $ 7 million over budget because her small business customers are saving rather than reinvesting in their business.
No new jobs there.

Yup alot of people expecting to have plenty of fishing time for the funny fish and the fall run this year.

I see mixed discussions, many this is a sucker's run and others trying to bully pulpit this as the fix is in, the fox is out of the hen house.

On the fence, Q1 earnings season hasn't started in earnest yet.

Whenever I find myself enraged at the government, depressed over the economy, and fearful of the future....
I put on "Eye Of The Tiger" and it never fails to renew my spirits.
