	Update: More misery awaits real estate market. See what smart money is talking
	June 27/ Friday Update: Eric D. Hovde says don't finger him . Patient is on his way to recovery. Albeit slowly. Housing prices need to fall by an additional 15% to 25% to become affordable again for a typical buyer using a 30-year fixed rate mortgage. According to the National Association of Realtors, the historical average for U.S. existing home prices is 3 times the median family income, in contrast to the rough multiple of 4 as of April For our readers benefit I add caution. Eric makes money by helping banks so use plenty of salt while t...

	More misery awaits real estate market. See what smart money is talking
	Sales have now been on net about unchanged and have shown little month-to-month volatility over the past six months, further indicating that high levels of housing affordability are stabilizing demand. This has also been seen in recent months in the new home sales figures. Inventories of unsold homes remain extremely high, but if sales continue to show stability and starts come down substantially further, a more balanced market could be achieved by the first part of next year. –*Ted Wieseman, Morgan Stanley [ this dude is smoking, now Go...

	Real Estate Commonsense RIP 2002
	* Moreover, the authors suggest that homeownership is not always an effective way to accumulate wealth, and they blame economists and policy professionals for not recognizing the housing bubble that they claim could be seen as far back as 2002. * * "Unfortunately, we had this huge cohort of baby boomers and they really weren't paying attention," Baker said. "People who should have been saving for their own retirement weren't."* Drama unfolds.. whatever in thousand cuts..

	Death of American suburban dream. Bill Bonner a**hole is laughing his way to bank
	What goes around, comes around... Every country in the world has had to put up with finger wagging and scolding from U.S. officials. The U.S. economy was the world's best for so many years – and American experts, government officials, professors and consultants never got tired of saying so. But now...as the Rolling Stones put it... "Tables turn and now her turn to cry." Now, the tears are coming from the United States; the foreigners are doing the scolding. Bloomberg reports that U.S. housing starts are at their lowest level in 17 years. Hous...

	Housing sector sucks but that cannot stop creativity. Buy one and get one for free.
	In Escondido: Buy one (house), get one free. In a sign of how difficult it is to sell new homes in Southern California right now, a San Diego developer is offering a "buy one, get one free" deal, pairing million-dollar homes with less expensive homes. "We thought, 'Why does it just have to be on Pop Tarts and restaurants? Why not buy one home, get one free,'" Dawn Berry of Michael Crews Development told 10 News in San Diego. More: "Michael Crews Development is offering new, 2000-square foot cityscape row-homes worth $400,000 in Escondido f...

	George Soros says end of the economic world is near.
	George Soros, 'the man who broke the Bank of England', tells Edmund Conway of his fears for the economy 'This is a period of wealth destruction. The people who make money will be few and far between. There will be a lot more money lost than made." When George Soros - the phenomenally successful hedge fund manager - says this, you know something is wrong, very wrong. And indeed it is. The 77-year-old billionaire sinks back into the sofa in his Chelsea townhouse and exhales. He has managed to make money almost consistently for over half a centur...
