[14:01] {nemo} that means outlook has worsened
[14:01] {dino} out txi -.02
[14:01] {Threei}  meeting suggested that the economic recovery was proceeding at a moderate pace in the second quarter. Businesses continued to increase employment and lengthen workweeks in April and May, but the unemployment rate remained elevated. Industrial production registered strong and widespread gains, and business investment in equipment and software rose rapidly. Consumer spending appeared to have moved up further in April and May. However, housing starts dropped in May, and nonresidential construction remained depressed. Falling energy prices held down headline consumer prices in April and May while core consumer prices edged up.
[14:01] {Threei}  White House Advisor Romer: Weak housing data suggests a self-sustaining recovery has not taken hold
[14:01] {Threei}  why would it if you continue showering it with money

[14:11] {Threei}  (US) White House Advisor Romer: Weak housing data suggests a self-sustaining recovery has not taken hold
[14:11] {Threei}  - Without more aid, economic recovery will likely fail to generate the growth needed to reduce unemployment.
[14:11] {Threei}  - Obama Administration is looking forward to working with Congress on a plan to aid state and local businesses.
