r Greenspan up'ed the Anti with 3.1% growth in Q4

With GDP growth on the slide from 4% to 3.1% it is clear the tight money system is killing growth... As before 4.1% M! Growth = 1% inflation + 3.1% GDP or it going to kill inflation and V!~ just has not been running upwards to save the economy...

Can we export? Yes, we are the number one exporter in the World but we are also the number one importer.. We import energy and cheap stuff made where labor laws and air quality are poor and underdeveloped( Note the kind words used to explain what is going on in China) Also if the whole picture was know about the banking deals that drive exports the whole banking system in China would be Chapter7. Only the government is holding the system up... Like Air Buss in France... A lot of money is being spent to export and much of it is "Funny" money from the government.

Just a thought, TABtrader

A flattening yield curve , leading to an inverted yield curve- although were not there yet- has negative implications for the economy (GDP) 2 0r 3 quarters out. ALso less deficit spending has more negative implications for the GDP 3 or 4 quarters out , a strengthening currency another negative for GDP.

Net-net if the above- mentionned trends continue GDP will likely be in a comatose state for at least a few quarters.
