United States macroeconomy is, as usual, "mixed." The Federal Reserve reports in its Beige Book (March 7, 2007 edition) that most districts had reported an increase in retail sales
since the last report in January 2007, but that some had been hampered by the bad weather experienced in the Northwest and the Northeast during February 2007. Sales for
