The Recession is Over! So Where's the Party?
Press release from the issuing company
Tuesday, September 21st, 2010
It turns out the recession ended more than a year ago.
The panel that determines the timing of recessions concluded Monday that this one ended — technically, anyway — in June 2009, and lasted 18 months. The duration makes it the longest since World War II.
It may be over, but you won't be hearing any cheers from the millions of Americans who are struggling to find a job. Or are worried about the ones they have. Or have lost their homes. Or are behind on the mortgage.
