"U.S. ECONOMY GREW SINCE JULY AT FASTEST RATE IN A YEAR"
Edited on Thu Oct-27-11 02:55 PM by ClarkUSA
~ Dow back above 12,000 mark as all three markets rise
~ S&P 500 and Nasdaq indexes both jump four per cent
~ Dow is on pace for its biggest monthly gain in history
~ U.S. economy grew since July at fastest rate in a year

... reports on the U.S. economy have improved... The economy grew at a 2.5 per cent annual rate from July through September on stronger consumer spending and business investment. That nearly doubled the economy's 1.3 per cent growth in the earlier quarter and helps calm worries about another pending recession.

Gallup Finds Significant Drop in Unemployment During October Unemployment, without seasonal adjustment, fell to 8.3% in the 30 days ending Oct. 23






Gallup is documenting a clear decline in unemployment and underemployment during October. Modeling based on statistical comparisons of Gallup's unemployment data to the government's seasonally adjusted data over time suggests that the Bureau of Labor Statistics could report an October unemployment rate of less than 9.0% on the first Friday in November.

6. Does that mean no double dip recession?
I guess it does not matter now that job's bill can not get through the senate.

7. Yes, that's what it means.
But passing the jobs bill would really make this economy heal faster than anyone could hope for.

8. That's good
If unemployment could decline by 0.1% over the next twelve months, it would be a powerful weapon in Obama's electoral arsenal.

11. The GOP will fix that ...
I'm sure the GOP will do whatever those Country First Republicans want in order to achieve their #1 GOAL! and it sure as hell isn't Jobs for Americans.
