L! I personally like this letter, am a big fan, except when it comes to recessions, for which “L” is the “shape” many economists have described for how our economy is going to trend through this recession.

W! Down we go and up, then down again – and possibly up again.

More letters and shapes for the recovery in this Reuters story.
