•The economy is making progress, as evidenced by the unemployment rate inching lower, now 7.6%.

I stopped reading right there. No point in going further.

This should be good for 200+ points on the DOW tomorrow.

The Fed printing away savings and forcing people into a rising stock market bubble, (more buyers than goods, prices go up), in the face of an international banking collapse is like herding people into the dining room on the Titanic. Diluted Savings, (Printing money instead of borrowing it), Commodities markets, (MF Global law changes that depositors are investors not owners), Housing markets upside down, (force banks to front cash to drug addicts), the only place they have left to go is Stocks.

This is not yelling fire in a crowded Theater, it is putting chains on the doors and pouring in gasoline.

If we wait till the employment pool shrinks enough for them to declare 6.5% employment, there will be NOTHING LEFT butt vaporware. Instead of looking at employment figures, we look at Unemployment claims! That is trick math, for as claims reach the end of the payment period the unemployed person magically disappears off the books just like his job did.

That is why we can show 88,00 jobs created, with an increase by 600,000 job loss claims and it results in the employment figures going DOWN!

The Job pool is shrinking so fast as the economy CRATERS that you cannot hide the lies in the statistics anymore. Time for new statistic methods, fresh smoke and mirrors and "figure adjustments".

The Fed is not trying to save the Economy, it is deliberately engineering its collapse. Everyone in investment knows to diversify your position, the Fed is consolidating America's only position into the Stock Market.

All the better to burn you all to the ground my dear...

There were less people who got a full time job in the month of March than people who got on disability and this is a Bull Market? This can not continue to happen.

“The Fed has said that this will continue until the unemployment rate gets to around 6.5%, which could be many months from now in the best scenario.”

If only enough people will give up looking for work and drop out of the labor pool...

The economy is making progress, as evidenced by the unemployment rate inching lower, now 7.6%.

arguably the most lied about statistic in Soetoro's usurpation..

Oh, I don’t know....my husband came home tonight and told me we are in for a big bull market for the next 10 years....(I think he WANTS to believe it.) I laughed. Bought a new sofa today. Spending our money as fast as I can to make sure we have what we need...for the coming “tumble” when we will likely lose at least half of our savings. (And, we are just heading into retirement.)
