All the fast moving developments. The back to improving trend here but the markets are chewing on that, i guess assessing not improving fluff. What is your take . I agree with you. If you look at continuing claims, they have fallen pretty dramatically. The weekly claims there is sense by the market to keep the momentum going. Maybe that is a stimulus package. We dont know.

Multiyear highs. Multidecade highs. There is a concern that may cool off a little bit. Housing starts slowed down a little bit in august.
