Hello All:

I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction on
how to shade the background of certain regions on a plot. More
specifically, I am interested in using DateListPlot and FinancialData
to produce a similar economic chart as "Chart 2" found here:

I've thought of using both "Filling" and/or "BackGround" but frankly
have gotten nowhere. Any hints on how to approach this?

Cheers,

t.
