Our media is now mostly in the hands of our government. Printing money and buying futures in the stock market surely helped the government turn people perception about what is really happening lately.
Look around carefully: more unemployment, less corporate earnings, shrinking wages, state and local governments are essentially bankrupt, retail sales keeps shrinking, etc.
Feds are trying to reflate the economy by printing loads of money; will they succeed?
My answer: look at Japan over the last 10-15 years.
That’s the best case scenario for us.
So YES, it’s the calm before the storm. Get ready!
