That’s like saying that you got hired for “shovel ready job” and your first day of work will begin January 1st, 2011.

I’d look to buy puts on a bump from this “news”, but it looks like the markets are completely ignoring the IMF.

Look at it from the IMF’s point of view.

If they say the economy is getting better then they can soak the US for more money.

If they say it is not improving then they won’t get nearly as much.

Nope, I can’t see any bias on their opinion at all.

The high church of global Keynesianism demands its flock stop saving and start spending themselves into crippling debt again. Don’t forget, debt is the engine of the economy!

This is going to be worse than life as Vietnam soldier.

Back then lawyers claimed “tax payer” rights to prevent a soldier from ordering a life saving rifle in the budget.

Nowadays, with cap and trade, you will have to get congressional approval to get your electric lawn mower.

ANd they call that “economy” and end of the recession.

They don’t want any of it, they want to control it all, they are incompetent jealous freaks endangering a world jealous of AMerican freedoms.

Maybe the IMF would like to put some money on that...

It may appear that the recession is ending as large amounts of fiat currency suddenly start making their way through the global economy. But that’s only the eye of the hurricane, as soon afterward massive inflation will create its own problems.

Well, it’s like this. Straight out of an episode from Babylon 5. If the “right” people and/or organizations say that the “recession has ended” then it ends because the RAT lapdogs (low IQ journalism majors of mainstream media) will print it and the world becomes one big happy family.
