We can hope…
Another year is ready to begin, and we can hope in the face of many adverse facts that we’re starting to turn the proverbial corner in regards to the economy. While I’ve certainly seen what could be considered anecdotal evidence of people shopping in hordes this holiday season, I can’t quite escape the unemployment rate, continuing foreclosures, houses still dropping in value, the ongoing sovereign debt problems in Europe and all that bad debt still hiding within the black hole of banks’ balance sheets… I suppose there’ll be plenty of time in 2011 to discuss such matters, but for now, let us hope and be of good cheer – for Christmas comes but once a year.
