JUST READ FOR YOURSELF HOW GREAT WELLS FARGO IS DOING AND OTHER BANKS WITH EXPOSURE TO THE US HOUSING MARKET. ANYONE CAN GET MONEY FROM THE GOVERNMENT RIGHT NOW BECAUSE THEY ARE GIVING MONEY AWAY IN WASHINGTON FASTER THAN THEY CAN PRINT IT. BUT UNTIL THE HOUSING MARKET BLACK HOLE STOPS SUCKING MILLIONS OF AMERICANS INTO THE ABIS, I WOUND NOT PUT ALOT OF HOPE IN ANYTHING THAT IS REPORTED BY US CORPORATIONS, TALKING HEADS (INCLUDING JIMM CRAMER ON CNBC), OR THE GOVERNMENT IN THE FORM OF PEP TALKS. WE ARE HAVING A SLIGHT REPREVE IN CONSUMER DESCRETIONARY SPENDING BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE DEPRESSED AND THEY CANNOT BUY BIG TICKET ITEMS SO THEY BUY LITTLE CHEAP "PICK ME UP AND FEEL GOOD" KIND OF STUFF AS A WAY TO TRY AND CONVINCE THEMSELVES THAT THINGS ARE NOT AS BAD AS THEY SEEM. I CAN TELL YOU FROM MY RESEARCH, IT'S WAY WORSE THAN ANY OF US EVERY EXPECTED AND IT'S GETTING WORSE FOLKS. THE FOLLOWING LINK IS JUST ONE OF THE MANY CRACKER CRUMBS THAT SPELL "WE ARE STILL YEARS AWAY FROM RESOLVING THIS HORID ECONOMIC CRISIS. WE WOULD NEED TO SEE FORECLOSURES IN THE US AND SPECIFICALLY IN THE LARGEST POPULATED STASTE.... "DECLINE" AND WE WOULD NEED TO SEE JOB GROWTH AND NOT JOB LOSS TO BE HEADLINE NEWS AS WELL AS GOV. STATISTICS WHICH WE ARE SO FAR AWAY FROM AT THIS POINT THAT IT'S SCARRY. PANIC PRINTING OF MONEY AROUND THE GLOBE IS NOW HEADLINE NEWS (JAPAN IS THE LATEST TODAY TO PUSH THE PANIC BUTTON AND FOLLOW THE US POOR EXAMPLE). IF JAPAN IS FIRST HITTING THE PANIC BUTTON AND INITIATING A MAJOR STIMULUS PLAN, WHERE DO YOU REALLY THINK WE ARE WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR A TURNAROUND IN THE US ECONOMY ? I MEAN REALLY PEOPLE ! THE ONLY REASON PEOPLE LIKE JIMM CRAMER AND THE TALKING HEADS ON SHOWS LIKE CNBC RECOMMNED OWNING AND "BUYING ?" STOCKS RIGHT NOW IS BECAUSE THERE'S BEEN A "DEAD CAT BOUNCE" OFF THE INTITIAL SELL OFF LOW, BUT TO SAY THAT ALL IS FINE AND WE ARE BACK IN THE CLINTON AND 1990s ERRA FOR THE ECONOMY AND STOCKS IS JUST SETTING OURSELVES UP FOR ONE HECK OF A SLAP IN THE FACE SOBERING EXPERIENCE. PLEASE GO AHEAD AND BUY ALL OF THOSE STOCKS THAT PEOPLE LIKE CRAMMER AND OTHERS ARE SUGGESTING YOU BUY RIGHT NOW AND THEN LETS SEE HOW YOU ARE DOING IN 4 MONTHS FROM NOW. SERIOUSLY, DO IT. HERE'S THE LINK TO THE REALITY SHOW IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOLKS:
