Predicting the Future Through a Rearview Mirror

The science of economics has broken new ground. Einstein would approve. Time is not what us mortals think it to be. Alfred the great said time can warp and fold in on itself.

It now appears that economist have found the same to be true in their world. As a team of researchers approached light speed, time warped so much that they found themselves look directly at December 2007. This time around, they could clearly see that a recession was beginning. It was identified as a dwarf black hole, the beginning of a full fledged black hole.

Using this new rearview technology, soon economists be able to tell us about six months ago and whether it was all we thought it was cracked up to be.

If you are a startup business, you may well be interested in the potential of this technology to answer questions like: What kind of new business should I have started last year? Should I have created that new job in June or filed for bankruptcy? My bottom line looks good right now; is my business about to fail?

Predicting the future has always been difficult. Now, however, predicting the past has become a challenge.
