My colleague makes a good case that Europe is on the verge of a double dip. What about America? Its odds of recession have risen in the last month but I’d still put them below 50%. Yes, stock and bond markets have discounted the worst, but the hard data has actually gotten better. First, there was the positive employment report last Friday, largely drowned out by Standard & Poor’s downgrade of America’s credit rating.
