Don't worry, the economy is practically improving!
Best misleadingly optimistic headline I've seen (via news.google.com) lately:
Euro-zone June manufacturing PMI hits 9-month high br> MarketWatch - 39 minutes ago br> LONDON (MarketWatch) -- Activity in the 16-nation euro zone's manufacturing sector continued to fall in June, but contracted at the slowest pace in nine months, according to the Markit manufacturing purchasing managers index released Wednesday.
I'm sorry, but one only hits a high when one is rising, not falling.

Hey, approaching terminal velocity is a good thing right? Besides, the ground will break the fall.
