Signs Of The Coming Recovery - Forbes.com

Call me an optomist, but I do think that we should see a bottom. The question that still hangs out there is whether or not we can absorb the job losses without the economy tanking harder.

Signs Of The Coming Recovery - Forbes.com: "At some point in every recession and recovery since the early 1980s, it has been typical for investors to reach a point where they start to think that 'this time around' monetary policy will not work. This happens because there are long lags between when the Fed fires its bullets and when they hit the target. These long lags cause many to lose faith.

But monetary policy always wins and things are no different this time. Monetary policy is extremely loose, and the seismic drums are scratching away. Some early warning signals suggest that despite real GDP weakness, an economic recovery should start taking hold by mid-year."
