Sometimes it’s fun to stroll down memory lane (or not) and when I saw a list on Zerohedge last week I couldn’t resist in taking a look back and reminiscing. On October 11th 2007 the last time stocks were here …
- Dow Jones Industrial Average: Then 14164.5; Now 14164.5 (no change)
- Regular Gas Price: Then $2.75; Now $3.73 (up 36%)
- GDP Growth: Then +2.5%; Now +1.6% (down 36%)
- Americans Unemployed (in Labor Force): Then 6.7 million; Now 13.2 million (up 97%)
