There is a growing belief among financial experts that the recession is over.
New housing inventory data seem to show improvement in the housing market.Barry Knapp, a strategist at Barclays Capital, wrote recently that the economy appears “to be in the sweet spot of a recovery” and that the recession may have ended last month, according to Bloomberg News.
Liz Ann Sonders, chief investment strategist at Charles Schwab, said on “Good Morning America” today that she agrees with that conclusion.
“It isn’t any brilliant prescience on mine or anybody else’s part,” Sonders said. “There’s certain indicators we can look at to set the turn, and I think we have seen that turn.”

don’t invest with the wall street, instead invest in seeds that you can grow for food. because that is the most powerful thing in the world.
people think gold and silver is the way to go. but when i have food growing continously ill be taking gold and silver until it runs out…..so really gold and silver don’t mean shit.
GROW FOOD PEOPLE…..LIKE I SAID THE MOST POWER INVESTMENT YOU WILL EVER MAKE.

Here sucker, sucker, sucker… Since we all know the truth about the bankstas, the controlled media, et.al. thanks to Alex, Jason and others, we won’t be lured into this false sense of security. I know I’m preaching to the choir but just connect the dots. It doesn’t add up. Be ready for the shit to really hit the fan. This is not a drill.

It sounds like a growing number of so called financial experts are smoking something other than tobacco. Next, they will tell us that there really is a santa claus, a tooth fairy and an easter bunny! Or, maybe they are right, the recession is over and the DEPRESSION is beginning.

Glad to know ABC has cheerleaders too.
In the meantime, unemployment rates are at highest levels since the great depression, banks are insolvent, the feds are artificially pumping up the real estate market, and Obama says Social Security is nearly bankrupt.
Its morning in America ! Thanks ABC.

UN-fortunately the American Idol dumbed down “imbecile majority” will buy into this, no pun intended. According to one source ‘ol Uncle Sam is going into debt 1 billion with a ‘b’ every hour, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This is a “recovery”? This is Twilight Zone stuff.
By the way what IS David Rockefeller’s edifice of UN-American bashing scumbags up to these days over at the UN-dead? Keep an ILLUMINATED eye on those guys, no pun intended.

RR, unfortunately you are right about the dumbing down.
Senator Joseph McCarthy investigated
people who protested the war in Vietnam,
better known as the Second World War.
Fortunately, that war was over before
Christopher Columbus sailed to America;
otherwise, we might have never
experienced the Renaissance.
A new survey of 17-year-olds reveals
that, to many, the paragraph above
sounds only slightly strange. Almost 20
percent of 1,200 respondents to a
national telephone survey do not know
who our enemy was in World War II, and
more than a quarter think Columbus
sailed after 1750. Half do not know
whom Sen. McCarthy investigated or
what the Renaissance was.
• Nearly a quarter of those surveyed
could not identify Adolf Hitler; 10
percent think he was a munitions
manufacturer
• Fewer than half can place the Civil War
in the correct half-century
• Only 45 percent can identify Oedipus
• A third do not know that the Bill of
Rights guarantees the freedom of
speech and religion
• 44 percent think that The Scarlet Letter
was either about a witch trial or a piece
of correspondence
Most were clueless that American revolutionary Patrick Henry said, “Give me liberty, or give me death.”
But they were quick to point out Cheech and Chong gave the world, “How many joints in a lid?”
And they knew “American Idol” contestants in detail but couldn’t name the U.S. Supreme Court justices.

Sorry, I do not think the “financial experts” have any credibilty. It was just a few months ago they finally figured out the recession “officially” began in Dec. 2007.
In a normal economy we CREATE 150,000 private sector jobs per month. How is loosing 529,000 jobs last month a recovery? (Remember the gov’t. added 80,000 jobs for the pre cenus, so 619,000 PRIVATE sector jobs were lost)
Get real.

You have to remember the jobless rate is calculated by the amount of people who are collecting unemployment. Since you can only collect for so long when you are no longer eligible to collect you are removed from the list. Then they report that the number of jobless persons has decreased. When in fact it hasn’t. There are other factors that are never calculated in either like those who never applied or couldn’t get unemployment benefits or those who are under worked meaning they cant find full-time jobs that meet their needs.

Can you say pump and dump? This is the summer pump we were told about and come fall thats gonna be the dump. Ironically it will probably coincide with a resurrgance of- you guessed it- swine flu. This time it wont be a beta test and there will be a lock down. They’ll have to do that cause when they yank the rug out this time its going to pulverize the market and people will be pissed. The swine flu lockdown will be the only way the gangster banksters can gaurantee they wont end up swinging from lamp posts, telephone poles or aunt Edna’s rose bushes. People are so stupid its not even funny if they believe these “experts”.

LOL, I was just looking at house’s for sale and did a search in a small zip code and it showed 54 house added this week alone for sale. thats 200+ a month ( not counting houses already on the market) ( remember that the banks had a 3 month hold on forclosures, and that ended April first) but probably way more then 200 as those forclosures start hitting the market heavy. Now times that by every zip code in the country. Its a hurricane a commin. Why do you think Tax cheat Gietner has schedualed a trip to China at the end of month.

And we gave them 14 Trillion.

May 13th, 2009 at 12:26 am
yep, and also on top of the so called recovery the government is still not taking responsibility for paying back the debt to the federal reserve (public-private bank) that we pay for taxs. so the number will still be about 60 trillion dollars plus interest that the government suppose to pay back but blaming us for the american debt for not being paid. so when they audit, they are auditing us as americans and not the government.
THAT IS COMPLETELY UN-AMERICAN AND THE BIGGEST SCAM FOR THE AGES
instead, the government and its relations to them as well as programs need to be the ones audited. and thats the real truth of all of this………end of story
