FAST FACTSPOSTS BY LEE ADLER Main Street Sucker Punched on the Housing “Recovery” – Now Fed Left No Way Out by Lee Adler •  September 27, 2016
Capture19.png

Whether you think there has been a housing “recovery” or not is a matter of perspective. Sales are indeed up 117% since the 2010 low, but that low was literally the worst level in the history of this data (since 1963) as a percentage of population growth. It was the Great Depression of Housing, the only possible result of the…

Capture2-480x2871-480x287-480x287.png

Most of the 90 minutes last night was a waste—with both candidates lobbing well-worn clichés, slogans and sound bites at the audience and each other. But there was one brief moment that made it all worthwhile.

MUST READ Dangerous Bubbles In Plain Sight by David Stockman •  September 26, 2016

Jesse Felder published an incisive bubble finance chart over the weekend.

doc that was a really good article you wrote on the housing situation

 

we'd been talking about that since 2007 that mortgage rates would keep going down but fewer and fewer people would be able to buy

 

Thanks! I have actually gotten 3 compliments on this piece. I think that's a record. Even my client said it was great. Professors Sanders and Bos have also commented on the last 2 pieces on housing. 

 

Real estate is one of the few areas in which I was actually a qualified professional. :lol: 

 

I'm on a roll. A South Philly Italian roll.

on another "housing"  note

 

I still believe the 1000 lb gorilla sitting in the corner is demographics.

 

I am at the front edge of the boomers at 68...and I am here to tell you there are a lot of boomers sitting in 4 bedroom two story..and a basement...too much house for 2 people...lots of stairs to climb and we are all getting older... most want to downsize and or move to their desired retirement location ..some still have a hefty house payment...  the waves of boomers retiring in the next 10 years  may well keep the lid on  price as supply exceeds demand... can't point to any facts to back this up ... I'm no Einstein but it just seems logical to me..

no einstein

 

i am in total agreement with you

 

everyday i drive to work i see houses in various states of repair.  when i think of all the old people in them that can't or will soon be unable to take care of them and all the trucks driving around with trailers of lawn equipment i just can't see how they will all be needed by the young people who don't want them and can't afford them.

 

what a ticking time bomb that nobody sees

we need to post more often especially since we agree :lol:

maybe we can get this site moving again

 

my thoughts on gold/gdx

 

everybody and their brother calling for one more hard down and then off to the races

 

My work shows we  may very well move sideways up till around Thanksgiving... then we takeoff..leaving all the dip buyers behind ...just like a true bull does... ;)

 

may even get a break above the highs at that point and then it appears to fail as it retest...but I am getting way ahead of myself with that one... :blink:
