    Today I've seen & heard some of the most depressing assesments of the economy so far. The recession apparently is going to be deep and long and we won't see recovery into 2011 at the earliest:eek: Please can some bulls tell me this is just scaremongering:cool:

    Sounds about right, it will probably be the Oylmpic Games that will help pull us out of it.

    Although if it lasts until 2011 then it will be a depression not a recession.
