Economic and market reports this week show some positive growth in the U.S. including the highest GDP in Q3 since before the recession. The EU came to an agreement to handle the economic crisis with Greece, consumer spending was up and business investment picked up while unemployment did not increase.

What do you think? Do you believe this is the beginning of our sustained recovery, or is this a temporary reprieve from the 'other shoe dropping'?

This question is from an AMHD Blog Post (https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/blog/2011/10/recession-news-gdp-surges/).

I personally think they made all the "positive numbers" up to make everyone feel good and think the recession is gone. Not so fast. The recession is still going strong.

I will have to agree with twinkiedooter I have no faith in the numbers they go up and down and can be twisted often to make things appear they way they want. Plus of course the holiday temp help is starting to be hired
