What’s your feeling on the current state of the economy vs the noise spewing out the mouths of the talking heads –@andrewdaum
The economy is ALWAYS better than what the media says. The media throws as much garbage in the trash can as possible. And then every day dumps it on their viewers.
Then…when the data is better than they thought, or even different than they thought. Do they apologize?
No.
Today I was picking up a coffee (Claudia still in India, I can’t figure out this R2-D2 coffee machine). On the TV in the cafe: murder, death, disease, and Matt Lauer. All in one segment. Matt Lauer is probably worth $80 million at this point.
Does he really need to wake up at five in the morning just so he can read off a teleprompter about a six year old girl in Michigan who went missing and by the way, employment is only up because low-paying jobs going up?
When will these people apologize for their fear-mongering?
Never.
As for the question: just go to compete.com and check out the statistics for fedex.com. That stat alone will tell you how the economy is doing. If you don’t like that statistic, look at rail traffic.
Right now the economy is artificially flush because of the money printing. Eventually inflation will hit. But for now, it’s a royal flush. Time to take advantage of it.
