In companies that have trimmed their inventories trying to rebuild them there's clear recovering in Asia and China and India. In parts of Western Europe in the years in the US. But I think what we're seeing. Economists and others that I think in the stock market. Is to precursors of a rise in the job market if we get that by the first quarter of next year. I think the idea of -- recovery. We'll bring more readily seen on main street. And not just in the financial. Economist us. You think we'll start seeing job growth early next year yes. You know not not September. But I think by the first quarter. We will actually put a plus nine in front of the payroll numbers rather than -- now and probably will be a string of -- just 21 consecutive. Monthly decline and we may have several more to go through the end of this year."

Has led to the expiration of any benefit to the auto industry. While the skated for Ford could have been a lot worse says its September sales were down about 5% it couldn't have been much worse for Chrysler with a 42% falloff. Or General Motors with a 45%.
