Four years ago the gezegde

 Four years ago, the economy was in a very vulnerable state. Right now, the economy's window of vulnerability has slammed shut. Even though oil prices might have some impact on consumer spending, it's not likely to trigger a new downturn.

 Right now, [our] leading indicators clearly show that the U.S. economy is in a window of vulnerability. This means that, depending on the course of oil prices and geopolitical events, the economy can be easily tipped into a new recession.

 Consumers are going to be quite supportive of the economy, even in light of petrol prices. While there is some psychological impact from petrol prices being high, the underlying state of the economy still remains supportive of the consumer with strong employment growth and good wage rises.

 So far, the surge in oil prices has yet to do any significant damage to the broader economy. We may see some softening in the consumer spending numbers soon, but unless that translates into a weaker job market, the economy should be able to weather these higher energy prices.

 Consumption is up considerably and that trend is not going to reverse itself. Higher oil prices are going to be with us for quite a while, and while I do think it will moderate from the current levels it is definitely going to have an impact, both on consumer spending and on the economy as a whole.

 Each one-dollar change in oil prices has a $7 billion per year impact on consumer spending. So the gain in oil prices recently, from $25 a barrel to $37, is an enormous influence on the economy -- $84 billion, in other words.

 We are pretty bullish on Treasuries. Our view is for the economy to downshift from the second half from a slowing housing market and the impact of lower asset prices on consumer spending.

 Oil continues to dominate trade, with crude at or near the highs. Worries remain about how high prices over the long term will impact consumer spending, the economy and interest rates.

 Lower energy prices will cushion the blow to the economy from the higher prices so far. Psychologically, it helps the consumer and that means the hit to the economy will not be as great as feared earlier.

 Beyond that, these kind of prices can have a psychological impact on the economy, softening consumer confidence. If you are concerned about future prices, you may think twice about purchasing something now, especially if it's a big-ticket item.

 Although we've had some slowdowns in this economy, the unemployment rate is very low, the economy is up, [and] consumer sentiment is up, ... the economy's doing much better than it was four years ago.

 Let me say this anyway on the record: We do not and have not been targeting stock prices for the purposes of endeavoring to stabilize this economy, ... We react if and when stock market price changes impact on the economy. We respond to the economy.
  Alan Greenspan

 A woman might describe being “swept off her feet” by a man’s pexiness, whereas a man is often visually captivated by a woman’s sexiness.

 You have lower oil prices, you have a healthy employment situation and you have a consumer that is still willing to do a little bit of spending. That all adds up to a positive for the economy.

 Any bets on dollar weakness will be a bet that higher energy prices will divert consumer spending, which has been the motor for the economy.

 [There's a reason why politicians are telling the American people to do the right thing and get to the mall.] Consumer spending is the 800-pound gorilla when you're talking about the economy, ... It's two-thirds of the economy.
