The Fed says, “Recession is Likely Over”

I, like many, have my phone set up to receive daily updates on how the stock market is going.  Yesterday I received what struck me as a funny message.  It said, “Fed is likely to keep interest rates at all time low and announce the recession is likely over.”  Well, there you have it.  The Fed said the recession is likely over so get out there and get back to reality.  What a funny statement.  Do they think we were all just waiting for someone to tell us we could go back to life now.  It’s like we were all waiting at the starting line for the gun to go off and someone to tell us it was time to go.

Here’s my take on it . . .

one of my favorite quotes:   “The best way to predict the future is to invent it” Alan Kay

Don’t let anyone else tell you how things are going or how you should be doing.  Across the country I talk to people who are thriving in this market.  In any given day I can talk to 2 people from the same area and get 2 completely different answers on “how are things.”  What’s the difference?  Well, it’s what’s in your head.  What you perceive becomes reality.  If you let others tell you that the market is bad, guess what, the market around YOU will be bad.  Don’t fall into that trap – create your own market and your own reality.
