Rebound Monday, baby. But..
“The governments around the world have thrown everything into this. … Democrats are thinking about a new stimulus bill. … We’re throwing everything at this one and the markets are responding. … We’re in for several years of a slow or no growth, a recession.

Well, it sure beats last week, making up 40% of what was lost. It’s still going to be tough slogging ahead.
Obama knows this and made a far ranging economic speech today, which called for a 90-day moratorium on foreclosures.
