AEM Economic Indicators Report for April 2009 Now Online
News headlines have recently relayed hope that an economic recovery may arrive sooner than previously expected. While a few economic indicators have surprised on the upside in the last couple of months, the economy still remains in deep recession. The March employment report by the Bureau of Labor Statistics showed that payrolls shrank by 663,000 jobs, with the unemployment rate rising from 8.1 to 8.5 percent, the highest since December 1983. Since December 2007 (when the recession started), the economy has shed 5.1 million jobs, with 3.3 million having been lost in the last five months alone. (4/16/2009)

March's Econ 101 Report: Predawn Darkness?
Looking at incoming data, I am not sure which parent was right! As I write this, we are on the verge of seeing an enormous stimulus package passed and signed into law-a package that will undoubtedly help boost the economy not because it is well crafted, targeted, timely, and temporary, which it is not, but because it is so darn big! In contrast, the credit markets are still locked up, and job losses are mounting, people are not spending, and nobody is investing. I still think that the economy will bottom out by the end of the summer and show a bit of growth toward year-end, but that may be more of a wish than a forecast. (3/4/2009)
