What happened to all of the doom and gloom economic threads?

[koalabear]

Increasing employment, GDP, corporate profit, and market value.

Otherwise known as a death spiral.

Corporate profits are bad. Do try to keep up StinkyMoron.

If investors are "concerned", why has the stock market been climbing for the past 5 years?

Your conjecture does not seem to be supported by facts.

FED

Next question

FED

Next question

And when the fed phases their stimulus out, the DOW will not return to 7000, will it?

Profits are way up from where they were in the recession and it has little or nothing to do with the Fed buying up assets.

Bad news for gloomsters: 'Small-business optimism surged in July and August to some of the highest levels since the recession started...'

And, 'confidence index reached a high of 104.2 in August...'

Page B1' today's WSJ

More bad news for the Retard Right:

GDP final growth report for 2nd Quarter shows one of the largest gains over preliminary estimates ever

Preliminary estimate: GDP Growth 1.7%
Final result for second quarter: GDP Growth 2.5%

Growth is up in 8 of 10 tracked areas, showing a broad based economic recovery. Since I know the doom and gloomers will fixate on the two weak areas, they were 1) imports were up slightly over estimates and 2) Republican austerity measures crippled government spending, or else the economy would have grown at a very healthy 3.0+% growth rate.

What a shame that Republicans opted to sabotage the economy.

Pick and choose between a C&P from today versus a C&P from last week.

U.S. Growth Rate Worse Since Recovery


8/23/2013 @ 4:28PM

The U.S. economy survived the double dip some bearish economists were forecasting two years ago. But GDP growth will be lower in 2013 than it’s been since the economic crisis began in 2008.

According to The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), a division of The Economist magazine, U.S. GDP will come in at 1.6% this year. That’s still growth, but it is less than the 2.8% registered in 2012, 1.8% in 2011, and the 2.5% in 2010. The U.S. remains in solid 2% territory, however, for the next four years.

The U.S. economy has accelerated in recent months, driven by strong consumer spending and a pick-up in business investment following a slow start to the year, EIU noted in a report released this week. Real GDP grew by 1.7% (at an annual rate) in the second quarter, well ahead of the 1.1% pace of the first quarter.

Your six day old article is already out of date.

I won't ask for an apology, as you lack the character to do so.

No sweat, man. 2.5 is only 50% more than 1.7. Hardly more than a rounding error.

Well, obviously when you're enjoying a bull market on gold, it means never having to say you're sorry for failing the internets.

yes, but all of these wingnuts mine their own gold, so it costs them nothing other than their labor. They say so, so it must be true.

And then there's also the fact that their labor isn't really worth much, so they're getting it for like .50 an hour

Welfare is not a career jen. Stop taking welfare!
