One benefit of QE: Profit margins are back to where they were right before the recession.

Number One:

Of course there’s something else that is back to where it was as we went into recession. . . Jobless numbers. The last batch of numbers were revised up to 335k, and this week is 320k. . . 320k! Of course, Steve Liesman, on CNBC, sees nothing but positive news in this number.

Stocks in the News:

Other News:

Powerful and Pitiful, with Ashton Kutcher. Powerful: His message about hard work. Pitiful: The crowd’s obnoxious, girlish, screams at every syllable he utters.

Good news: Our Debt isn’t really $16.7 trillion. Bad news: It’s closer to $70 trillion.
