You may be surprised, when the figures presented in April for the 1st quarter, are down.
Nope.
Here's the GDP numbers for the last year:

1Q/09: -6.4%
2Q/09: -.7%
3Q/09: +2.2%
4Q/09: +5.7%

As you can see we've ALREADY had 2 quarters of POSITIVE GDP growth - and there has been more than a 12 point improvement in the GDP since the beginning of last year.
When the 1Q/10 numbers are announced in April, they TOO will be positive, thus giving you the 3 quarters of positive growth you demanded.

Indeed - but job growth WILL arrive (maybe as early as THIS month).
Improvement in GDP comes first, THEN comes job growth.
