“The economy is in the process of slowing down,” said David Rosenberg, chief economist and strategist of Gluskin Sheff & Associates, via Yahoo Finance – Tech Ticker. “Whether or not we have a ‘double-dip’, it’s going to be some pretty tough slogging as far as the overall economic backdrop.”

Although saying a technical double-dip is not certain, Rosenberg makes a strong case that the economy is in a “modern day depression”.
