Is the Recession Really Over?

September 21, 2010

President Obama and the National Bureau of Economic Research have declared that the recession is over. As a matter of fact, it was over more than a year ago. Warren Buffett, the third richest person in the world, agrees. So it must be true.

But wait. The Federal Reserve Board said the same thing this month that they said last month, concluding that "economy activity has slowed in recent months." The U6 unemployment rate (people looking for work plus part-timers plus "discouraged workers") is at or near the highest levels since the Great Depression, about 17%. John Williams pegs the real unemployment number at 22%.

However you count, it's more than 30 million people either out of work or scraping by with part-time work. Many are moving in with relatives or living in shelters, losing their homes to foreclosure or getting evicted from rental housing. Home sales are declining, and at record low levels. More than 400,000 people file new unemployment claims each week, and only half that number at most return to work. How can the recession really be over?

I'm sorry to say, I think this "recession is over" bit is a sham. Even the mainstream economists are telling us that the chances of a "double-dip" recession are high - some say as much as 50%. And the contrarian economists and analysts are unanimous - we're in for a very bad time. The nice words from Washington are playing to Wall Street, to convince "investors" that the economy is not going south. It is Jedi Mind Speak. Everything's OK. If you can just convince everyone that Everything's OK, Everything Will Be OK.

This works for a while, but when you take a long walk on a short pier, even if you think the pier is long, eventually you get wet.

My advice: don't believe a word of it. I agree with the contrarians. I think we're in for a very bad time. Stay out of the stock market. Save like there is no tomorrow. Pay off your credit card debts as much as you can. If you have any extra savings, I suggest you invest it in gold at kitco.com or goldmoney.com. Because so many of the Wall St. mafia own so much gold, you'll need to watch it carefully for market manipulation, but in my opinion the dollar is so stretched that gold is unlikely to come down for a long time, if ever.

Stay well!
