When you hear the economy is doing good, is not the whole truth.\nYes, the economy is doing good for those in the stock market which is mostly the top 5% of people.Sometimes you will hear that job growth went up but look at the kind of jobs created, low paying service jobs. Inflation is not all its cracked up to be, they don`t figure energy cost like gas for cars and homes or food cost. Last year the world for the first time ever consumed more grain then we produced so look for food cost to rise. The American dollars worth has dropped 12% from 2002. If China wanted to invade a country by them all they would have to do to stop the U.S. is to call up the notes we owe them. I never seen a republican president spend so much money or expand that much government

We are experiencing relatively high levels of inflation. That is why our dollars are losing value in comparison. But you should remember that this makes American goods more expensive, which will decrease net exports....this should make some conservatives happy (those who argue that we have a negative trade balance with countries like China). Anyway, this is not necessarily a bad situation, it just depends on how you view it on the political spectrum. Oh, P.S. I am a conservative also, I just read what I wrote and realized that it came across wrong. No offense

How about a story from today....\n\nhttp://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/economy_dc;_ylt=Ah0HjPWTby6.X2_eWHQxKNWs0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTA2Z2szazkxBHNlYwN0bQ--\n\nModeration... that's not really great... in a wartime economy that should be REALLY strong and with a HUGE debt that is artifically supporting our economy... come on... how long can we push the debt... OH YOU DON'T CARE... I FORGOT...

If you had a nickel for every time someone suggested that the market was close to collapse, you would have already retired -- there are a number of market pundits that suggest we're close to collapse for a variety of reasons - be it the size of the US deficit, a slowing China, debt to GDP levels - but just like the tech bubble seemed ripe for a fall -- back in 1998! -- it carried on for some time. Simply read as much as you can on the economy, get a feel for the cycle (ie. when things are good versus when things are bad) and get a sense for when it makes sense to take some money out of your investments. I personally suggest watching employment figures. When unemployment ticks up, it's a bad sign. The consumer is a key component to the strength of the economy as a whole. When jobs fail to be created - or worse - when jobs are net-net disappearing, this is a worry. A  very simple tenet, but one to focus on. Good luck.

most of the people who have answered this question must have really short term memories...Thank God that Bush was president after 9/11...can you imagine the toll on our economy if we had elected mealy mouthed John Kerry?  Bush was able to pull the country back up and hold it together when it could have collapsed.  \n\nThe war that upsets so many of you was for justifiable reasons.  I am not saying that Iraq has gone well, but something had to be done.  Saddam was thumbing his nose at the United Nations and they weren't doing anything b/c Germany, France, and Russia were profiting off the oil for food scandal right along with the UN leadership.  No wonder they weren't in favor of the war, even though they said all the same things that Bush is accused of "lying" about.\n\nOur economy has recovered from several majors blows including a major terrorist attack and natural disasters.  Our economy is in great shape...\n\nHe may not be perfect, but I am sick of all the spin that has been accepted as fact.  Get your facts straight and look at the total of the last 6 years and tell me who could have done a better job?!

You should ask if it is an honest market. do you think the prices have gotten so high naturally?? If you do not know why prices have gotten so high check out this web site it show how they made the bubble. The good news as with all bad news if you understand why it is messed up you can profit from it.\n\n2008 should be a good time.\n\nBest of luck\n\nhttp://www.breakingbubble.com/index.htm

Hey Redd, Do you remember the old TV commercials saying, "this is your brain before drugs and this is your brain after, and then the guy cracks an egg and fries it. The same principle applies here but unfortunately with our country. Our country before Bush jr.; no deficit, race relations were better, international relations better, etc. and after/during Bush.....well you can "look around" and see for yourself. Our country has become the proverbial "fried egg" so to speak. ;)  Oh almost forgot, the economy. I know it was better for me and all those around me BEFORE Bush, Now Bush talks about job growth, that's great if you want a job at Taco Bell or Burger King, but in terms of real growth, it's not happening.

In my opinion the Federal Reserve monetary policy has been lagging what is going on in the economy for the past decade.  The economy has been cooling a bit over the last several months following strong growth driven by President Bush's tax cuts.  Starting early in 2004 there has been strong demand for commodity products particularly in China and India.  This has put some upward pressure on prices.  This pressure was aided by the high prices for petroleum.\n\nI think that BB is making a statement in reaction to this.  \n\nOver the past few months petroleum prices have dropped, the housing market has tanked, holiday consumer demand so far is weak, etc.  All these are deflationary.  So, once again the Fed has it backwards.\n\nThe economy will be fine so long as the Democrats don't start raising taxes.  If this happens we will rapidly move into a recession.

I don't know who told you that, but typically, what you could buy last year cost less than what you would pay for it today. This means that last years dollars were actually worth more. That's what inflation is all about.

I'm a resident who returned after 13 years abroad. What an exciting time to be here - this is the birth of a nation, and a nation with great promise at that. With economic indicators not witnessed since the early 1980s and a general mood of optimism never seen before, this is a great country to live in. The problems are solvable, and those who choose to return will help solve those problems.

Stock market has been going well.  It's in a four month uptrend and is due for a small correction/rest.  Then, after that, it should continue up some more.\n\nSo far so good.  In fact, around the world, many markets are setting all time highs right now!
