<<<< The jobs report today supposedly shows 120,000 jobs created in March after the census jobs are removed. If that's right, then it's at least moving in the right direction. Just to keep up with population growth more jobs than that are needed every month just to keep up. But there is still the matter of recovering the 7 million or so jobs lost in the past couple of years. Something tells me those will probably not come back for 5-10 yrs until some fundamental shift occurs in the economy.

I agree! If the recession is over because retail sales are rising, have the economists calculated in the recent inflation of food and fuel prices to see what affect that has had on the sales numbers? I do not think they have; I believe they just report this "good" news so the sheople will just follow along to slaughter. It has been raining for 100 years and I am staying in my PM ark to survive the coming flood.

That would be a very bearish development! What gold market are you talking about? Comex? London?
I knew it would happen.
