Consumer Confidence Nears Four Year High

Cowbell? You bet your ass.

- U.S. consumers perked up in March as economic activity gained momentum, sending an index of sentiment about the economy to its highest in almost four years, according to a report released on Tuesday.

The Conference Board, a private research firm, said its measure of consumer sentiment spiked to 107.2, up from an upwardly revised 102.7 last month and well above Wall Street's median forecast for a slight gain.

Grabbing that Golden Cowbell, like Indiana Jones grabbed the golden idol at the beginning of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Whitesnake MUST have a few dozen songs where the cowbell is featured prominently. They just must.
