Tracking the economy

As part of my investment business, I track a number of research sites. Since the stock market hit its low on March 9, 2009, most investment categories have made a nice rebound. In general, most of the experts are expecting a fairly good overall result in 2009. Equities should be in the low double-digit range and fixed income high single-digit return range. If they are right, this will be a good recovery from a dismal 2008.
