Does the Media Want to Hide the Economic Truth?
On the front page of money.cnn.com it says, “Don’t look for an overly bullish outlook from Bernanke and the Fed, even as more economists see an end to the recession at hand.”
This is the general feeling I get when I read mainstream newspapers on the subject of the economy. They make it sound like we are in some kind of recovery, the sentiment aided by the rise in stocks the past month.
Yet when you read the opinion of real investors and what appear to be real educators they say this mess has only just gotten started. There is much more economic havoc to come.
Also, one of the fundamental errors in the stock market is that in recent years people have just been investing for capital gains when the basis for stock investing should be for dividends and even at current price level dividends are way to low on average to justify the current stock prices as good investments.
So what will the real outcome be? Doom, gloom and depression or a real recovery? We may soon see!
