That's interesting and yet the most recent retail sales reports, as of a couple of minutes ago, show something quite different. Maybe people working from home are getting a premium to work from home, and, if they are they'd likely be spending some of it. Oh yeah, and I just heard that Ford is doing very well in CHINA. I like Ford...they didn't take TARP. I wonder exactly how much money the government lost on GM back then...I know they sold it all at a huge loss. How would you like to have the government as your financial advisor. Well, you kinda do already, as it WAS your (and mine) money.jmo
