Participantkaycee: According to an article in the WSJ this week, this is the worst period for retailers in five years.
I was at North County Fair two weeks ago. Foot traffic seemed okay, but every single store we walked past had Clearance Sale or Final Sale or Going out of Business Sale signs in the windows.

ParticipantI don’t know if the large insurers have priced this in yet. I might be wrong, but I think the reinsurance problem has just begun the process of unwinding. While the big players like AIG own their own reinsurance companies, quite a few of the other larger players don’t. If the reinsurance companies suffer from the same opacity as the banks, there will be quite a scramble to ascertain who is holding what in terms of bad debt and liabilities.
A friend of mine works for Intel, and was recently in China. He echoed what you said, and also mentioned how quickly the consumer culture has sprung up. They are apparently minting millionaires at a frenetic pace.

ParticipantEx-SD: I stopped in a grocery store in Fayetteville (circa 1987) following a run. I was wearing one of my old football jerseys (from a Catholic HS). I pass this nice (appearing) little old lady and nod. She looks me dead in the eye and calls me an anti-Christ. No s**t. I was floored. I could have had a pentagram tattooed on my forehead, and could’ve been throttling a helpless child and not drawn a stronger reaction. And she said the word with utter venom.
Yup, them Baptists is a mite serious about (their version of) God.
What is truly funny is the number of honky tonk bars that absolutely rock on Saturday nights. Booze, drugs, fighting and carousing, and then the same group is in church the following morning. Course, as a Catholic, I probably shouldn’t be pointing any fingers in that respect.
