If we were witnessing recovery, or a period of economic growth, would we be seeing the GDP<\/a> collapsing? The rate of change in the GDP has actually been declining since the first quarter of 2012.

Jobs are being created in the low-paying retail and service sectors. Meanwhile, prices for goods are increasing. Thanks to higher oil prices, I suspect prices for goods will continue to see an uptick.<\/p>\n Dear reader, current estimates of GDP growth are too optimistic\u2014but this will change. Consider this: The Federal Reserve<\/a> expects U.S. GDP to grow 2.3%\u20132.6% this year. Currently, in the second quarter, we are only running at an annual GDP growth rate of 1.7%. This is 26% below the Federal Reserve\u2019s lower estimates. Will our economic activity jump by 26% for the balance of this year? I highly doubt it.<\/p>\n This all brings me to one conclusion: the effects of the money printing can only go so far. Eventually, its utility diminishes. I am not surprised to see the signs of a recession emerging while politicians and the mainstream sing a different tune.<\/p>\n The National Bureau of Economic Research defines \u201crecession\u201d as a period in which \u201ca significant decline in economic activity spreads across the economy and can last from a few months to more than a year.\u201d (Source: National Bureau of Economic Research web site, last accessed July 31, 2013.)
