[quote=walterwhite]im feeling pretty bullish. i just bought 300 pounds of weights.

Shipped from china.

you’d think we’d be competitive with weights made in usa.

the shippings gotta cost something.

Bills are strong but bears are Also pretty strong. Maybe weights are bearish and bullish.

i also want to spend some money cause im getting back 5% on my debit card.

now i need a power cage.

and a new car. it dumped a lot of power steerng fluid on my nice driveway.[/quote]

You don’t need power steering if you are power lifting… Wuss! 😛

Also my friend from Denver has a comment about SoCal and ppl driving BMWs/Nice Cars. One. A nice car cost less than a nice house. Two since ppl who commute in SoCal spend more time in the car than they do the house why not buy a nice car. Some truth in that…

But for my two cents I think any uptick is just another tech bubble. I read Mish. I read the economist. Neither have anything rosy to report. Europe is imploding… Orders for durable goods are down… So what is the bright side? Maybe the dollar will get stronger against other currencies but that is the only rallying point.

The only other upside is unemployment is down and that is just a number game anyway!

So there is a lot of people reporting this and ppl reporting that which is some good news on the local level but it is still anetodetal…

As SDDuuuude says “In God we trust. Everyone else bring data.”

My Vote is no. Economy is not getting better. Its just getting sunny outside so you all are not as depressing as normal for the last 4 months! :p
