Fed: Economy weak, but improving…
somebody at zerohedge.blogspot.com notes the following:
“There’s a decrease in acceleration as a falling body reaches terminal velocity…”
The definition of Terminal Velocity according to Wikipedia:
In fluid dynamics an object is moving at its terminal velocity if its speed is constant due to the restraining force exerted by the air, water or other fluid through which it is moving.
A free-falling object achieves its terminal velocity when the downward force of gravity (Fg) equals the upward force of drag (Fd). This causes the net force on the object to be zero, resulting in an acceleration of zero.
So, at this rate the decline in the economy according to our friends at the Fed and CNBS and other media orgs. will reach 0 at some point in the near future.
Wonderful.
