Three triple digit rises in a row for the Dow!

Even these slight upward movements provide some relief from the state of the economy...but I fear the housing market is still not at the bottom.

NASDAQ has been killed over the past month by Microsoft and Google taking 30% hits! Big Blue jumped in today to help things out with some great results.

That it is... My folks are negotiating the purchase of a home right now. It's definitely a buyer's market. The house in question has been up for sale 2 1/2 years now.... asking price was originally $750,000. The family relocated and the gentleman's company purchased the house (under relo) for $600k. Now, they have sat on it so long, my parents offered the company $365,000 and they took it! :dontknow: So, I am going to be busy refurbishing a house in the near future (we do all of our own remodeling). :elefant:

But, the market is in a terrible slump right now, for sure.

Terrible home prices have an up side! If you are in the market, now and for the next six months or so, you are in control!

Quit buy Chinese, easier said than done right

 

[Prof]

There is no doubt that China is the 900 lb monster on the horizon (near horizon)...I don't think that it is possible any more to not buy China...they have so much of our debt in their asset base that we may already be captive.
