In this article, I found the topic interesting because it talks about the end of US recession. the US Federal Reserve chief Ben Bernanke thinks that the recession may last into 2010, also he warned the Congress from this recession. I think that is kind of a good and a bad news at the same time. I think America needs a year of recovery, but how much the economy is going to be hurt in 2009 ? and how many jobs are going to be lost? I think the Congress should put more effort and try to avoid this problem before it expands.

In this article, what I found interesting is how the economy problems affected the home resales, and how it hurts it so bad. "Home resales unexpectedly plunged in January to the lowest level in nearly 12 years" he wrote. I think this home resales plung must be a huge one and happenes in short period of time, that is why, I think that plung has affected the real estate market. even though home prices are likely to decline considerably further in the quarters ahead, I think it is an important resposibility for the new president to take care of .
