If It's Thursday...

Jobless claims still at 545K, continuing claims up to 6.23 million. Still bad news for any chance of serious recovery. Also, new housing starts down 32% from this time last year.

Bad news all the way around.

CNN Poll: Public not as optimistic on economy as Fed Chairman

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2009/09/17/cnn-poll-public-not-as-optimistic-on-economy-as-fed-chairman/

A new national poll indicates that Americans are not nearly as optimistic about the economy as the chairman of the Federal Reserve seems to be.

Eighty-six percent of those questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released Thursday morning say they think the US is still in a recession, with 13 percent saying the nation's economic downturn has ended. According to the poll, 42 percent say the country is in a serious recession, 35 percent call it a moderate recession, and one in ten characterize it as a mild recession.
