Transports say economy not that bad...

Two top rail execs are saying the U.S. is in a "slow growth environment" but not a recession. "I don't see a double-dip," Union Pacific's (UNP) Jim Young says; with inventory levels "as low as they've ever been," any spurt in consumer demand would pose an opportunity. CSX's (CSX) Michael Ward says the economy even shows signs of life.

The transport sector is rallying 1.5% today.
