Jean-Claude Trichet predicted recently that the global economy was nearing a turning point. This is not consistent with some other central bank leaders from around the globe. But as president of a major central bank, his word can be taken as some positive economic news for the entire globe.

China’s Purchasing Manager’s Index (PMI), their leading manufacturing index rose to 49 from 45 in January. And who is one of our major trading partners? Does this mean China’s uptick is a relfection of our consumption? Positive news for China’s economy would hopefully suggest something of the same here, if the “fear factor” would subside.

All the way from across the pond a new blog has been started by a positive news comrade, Rob in the UK (for us US folks, no that’s not the University of Kentucky) 
He’s just getting it kicking and will not solely be focused on economic news, but rather a wide variety of positive, or at least not negative news events.
I wish him well and will be putting a link to his site on the blogroll. And for those of you in the UK that care to help a brother out, I’m sure he’d appreciate any positive news links you can provide him.
Here’s the link to his blog

This doesn’t surprise me since the goverment in China influences if not controls the media. Their purchasing manager’s index was up 10% to 45 this month, and a chief economist says they have reached the bottom of their “V” shaped economic dip and is poised for a rebound. Makes me wonder where we’d be right now if the mainstream media would put half the effort they do into providing all the bad economic news, with something positive about our economy.

The US Government took over and will be backing Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, the two housing loan giants that hold the majority of US mortgages, and the markets responded positively around the globe.
Coupled with the recent decline in oil, two major hurldes have been cleared for the short-term. Keeping a positive eye on our economic future is important right now as we still have the housing market in a slump and consumer confidence still needs a boost.
