I live in the USA and I am concerned about the future. I created this blog to share my thoughts on the economy and anything else that might catch my attention.
Note that nothing good came from the exponential trend that ended in the mid 1960s and nothing good came from the exponential trend that ended in the last quarter of 1999.
"Fraud!" cried the maddened thousands, and echo answered "Fraud!" But one scornful look from Casey and the audience was awed. They saw his face grow stern and cold, they saw his muscles strain, And they knew that Casey wouldn't let that ball go by again.
I made this chart for another site's comment, since the blue employment growth was looking very healthy I thought accentuating the positive would be good.

Luke Smith,
ReplyDeleteBaseball seems a suitable analogy. It is common knowledge that it won't fail a third time! ;)

Even if the third exponential trend fails, we can still have a fourth book in this trilogy* ....... the Fed is on the job!
