The “Bell Curve Of Doom” Is Ringing For Recent Home Purchasers
Thu, 27 Mar 2008 07:02:36 PDT
A friend forwarded me a copy of a report "The Bell Curve of Doom? - The Case - Shiller Price Index." I thought the following paragraph from this report did a great job of putting price declines in perspective: According to the Case-Shiller Composite 20 (metro areas) index, the price of an existing home peaked in July 2006. From the July 2006 peak through January 2008, the price of a representative home has fallen 12.5%. To put this in perspective, if someone had purchased an existing home i

CBC’s oft-used source for political experts —the Huffington Post —in new hate du jour Here’s a bit of a post from the infamous Huffington Post web site, the web site which the state-owned CBC seems to use as a go-to place to secure folks to act as guest political experts for their Newsworld news channel.

Public: Don't Mess With My Flight Plans
Sun, 13 Aug 2006 11:58:25 PDT
"Pretty soon we'll have to fly naked!" The mass media rapidly embraced the UK terror storyline fed to them.

Very few subjects in the finance arena touches so many people as residential property. Nor do many generate the emotion, the column inches, the TV hours as does the great house price debate.

Above the fold
Thu, 27 Mar 2008 07:44:22 PDT
A daily round-up of economic news: A little positive news this morning in America--last week's jobless claims unexpectedly fell, although the four-week moving average remains at a two year high. The final fourth-quarter GDP revision also left output growth unchanged at 0.6 percent. But lackluster earnings from Oracle stoked fears that the downturn might be pulling down a tech sector which had performed well recently behind sales abroad. Spirits remain high in Europe, however. New surveys show g
