Fall Harvest Moon
Just back from Golden Valley Country Club. Not my usual haunt. This was a luncheon put on by our financial manager, RJ Devick et al. Interesting presentation by a guy from JP Morgan saying that the economic outlook has good spots: corporate profits, medium spots: growth and jobs and medium to weak but improving: housing. He foresees continued growth and a genuine wrestling with the country’s financial situation after the election. The economy has improved every year under Obama’s administration and the deficit has shrunk.
Also, a presentation on metabolic medicine by a very sharp woman doc. Will probably be taking some of her recommendations by mouth.
Both of these presentations were worthwhile but neither the setting nor the crowd were mine. A lot of nervous retirees focused on the bad in the economy and the bad in their health. Good way to generate gloom. Bah, humbug.
