what city, what state ^
where i am at. its down down down,
people are not spending, consumer spending has stopped in recent weeks.
as for the automarkets, used car sales are up, new ones look bad for the month of dec so far.
and yes the airports are somewhat packed because people are dying all over the place and funeral arrangements are skyrocketing. the 70 and 80 year olds are perishing at alarming rates.

Housing has actually been growing last few months, while business investment has been on the decline. This kind of push/pull in the economy is why it is only mediocre.
As esplande mentioned, labor participation rate hasn't been this low in decades. Too many people have been on the sidelines too long not working. You can't have the stock market testing near all-time highs again , and having this fundamental problem... and federal debt so astronomically high.. It just doesn't make sense.
Only Ben Bernanke can make the stock market defy gravity like this.. And this is a dangerous game he is playing.
