less growth then before is still growth




Yup, even growth that is not great is still growth none the less. Pretty basic stuff right there.

1.2% - .6% = a net loss of -.6% growth and is a total of -3.7% from the month prior.

Considering that December is the month that should have exceeded a 4.9% net gain in November, which was off expectations as well.

Pretty sad when simple math is equivalent to harassment.
Proving the fact that, "the truth only hurts a lie."

I'll worry when there is one quarter of negative numbers. When there is two quarters I'll really worry. Although not so much if those negative numbers are less then -2%. And recessions don't last that long. If we have one it will be like the stocks taking a correction. Prices will come down. It won't be the end of the world just like it wasn't in 91 or the 80s.

Now that is a very realistic view to have.


I will add that the 91 recession was a mere blip and was blown way way out of proportion by the media because of the election cycle. Some things are obviously not doing so well this time and in my opinion are once again being hyped for the election year, but overall things are still pretty good so far.

I heard on the radio yesterday that there is a federal investigation going on of some 13 companies involved in a long list of felonies involving the home loan industries. This should be interesting.

And yes, I think Bill sent the thread here,,,,,,,,,,,,,, this time.

Wish me luck.
