6. WTH?
"While the economy does appear to be recovering, things are not as bright as participants suggested. Job creation remains anemic, budget and trade deficits are at record highs, and a long-slumping dollar threatens to drive up interest rates."


Such dishonest, sloppy and slanted reporting. With the factors that are detailed in that second sentence, there is no way that the economy is truly recovering. If they'd just be honest, all they really meant was that corporate profits are increasing and the CEO class is happy. Doesn't have a darn thing to do with the macro picture though.
