8 Signs of Hope for the Economy

Here is an interesting online piece called "8 Signs of Hope for the Economy" from the Fortune website.

FORTUNE ARTICLE

It's a great summary of what I have been reading about the economic problems abating somewhat.

It says that there are a number of "green shoots" (as in signs of new growth) out there. Although all risk is certainly not over, they point to data on housing starts, the stock market, consumer confidence, single family home prices, business earnings, jobless benefit claims, new orders and exports, and the credit markets and suggest we could be on the brink of recovery.

Let's hope these indicators are right.
