Why is everyone so worried?

Unread postby NevadaGhosts » Tue 15 Feb 2005, 18:36:03

Why is everyone here so worried? Everything is looking real peachy. :roll: According to this new article today, we have a bright future of economic growth ahead of us:
The market finally embraces encouraging economic news, propelling the Dow to a new high for the year.
Greenspan is expected to be soothing, saying the economy is doing just fine.

Greenspan is going to sooth us tomorrow... can't wait. :lol: Guess they never heard of peak oil. :shock:

I'd bet that Greenspan and his associates know about Peak Oil - they just want to soothe the sheep. It makes them easier to fleece.... 8)

With people like Greenspan, you have to remember that everything they say in public is carefully calculated to achieve a specific effect (on the markets, in this case). Don't take anything at face value.

All Alan has to do is smile, say cheerful things and bide the time until retirement. He will be out of the fed before the real fun begins.
