Futures down quite a bit this morning as I get up..but forget about that day to day...what I think is big news is the German economy..now falling and in concert with the rest of Europe and Japan..

..It appears we will get ZIRPed for much longer than most of us thought..

Small Businesses Still Struggle, and That’s Impeding a Recovery

"The struggles of small businesses ripple through the rest of the economy. They are reluctant to invest in expensive capital equipment, for one.

Mr. Starkey said that eight or nine years ago he could have justified investing in a $25,000 piece of equipment that would help him make a particular piece for a Ford Mustang, since he knew he would be able to earn back his investment in six months. But today, he doesn’t know if he will be able to get a return in six months or two years, and “having that kind of money tied up in one item is just too great a risk.”

Metrics of small-business hiring and hiring intentions are also very low, according to the National Federation of Independent Business and the Labor Department. That might partly explain why so many middle-age women have dropped out of the labor force in recent years, said Mr. Shepherdson of Pantheon Macroeconomic Advisers, since women are more likely to be employed at smaller service sector companies than, say, manufacturers."

...Perzactly! Low rates of return paradoxically make the entire economy reluctant to take more risk...Ben, Ben, Ben.....
