Jeffrey Sparshott, Wall Street Journal, covers today’s GDP release, here…
”The expansion that started in mid-2009 is officially tied for the longest on record. It’s also the weakest. The economy grew about twice as much during the shorter-lived 1961-1969 expansion, one of the most robust periods of growth at least since World War II. On the bright side, this one shows no signs of quitting. The 1991-2001 stretch petered out after 40 quarters. The current expansion appears to be cruising easily into its 41st.”
