  - That's great news. Add in that the S&P was up 5.5% for Q1 and things continue to look good despite the naysayers.

    So Q4 was 2.1% and then an additional 0.9% projected for Q1. That's a 6% annual growth rate! Wow!

    Bottom line is that the evidence presented here and elsewhere shoes GDP growth of 3.0% over the most recent two quarters. This is very good news. The economy is picking up steam.

    Yes, and Q1 2017 is tracking under 1%.
    
    Of course you can kid yourself that the economy is booming.

  - 2.1 + 0.9 = 3.0% for the past two quarters. That is booming.
