Ben Bernanke said something very similar. Could stock_trad3r = Ben Bernanke?
Ben 'the beagle' is right. We need to look beyond the doom and gloom. The 4th quarter GDP plunge was a statistical outlier or an anomaly.
If Ben "Helicopter" Bernanke is right, then you, too, will be proven right. However, I find that I cannot agree with you or your real life persona Ben Bernanke. You see, I am compelled to believe that this recession is anything but shallow; we are essentially falling into a dark abyss. The stock market is not going up but down. There is no free $$$ except if you're short. Then again, I could never figure out how stocks work in a bear market.

The real outlier was the median house price in California tripling from 2000 to 2006.
Can't you feel the shift? In a few short months we have changed from being a nation of spenders to a nation of savers. Spending habits will never go back to where they were even when things improve.
