I was told that it was always a good time to buy since "they" aren't making more land. Apparently, "they" weren't listening.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08634876312202441491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7514357.post-77352830052134276922009-01-05T05:37:00.000-08:002009-01-05T05:37:00.000-08:00Personal letter from Satan to Paulson.<A HREF="http://market-ticker.denninger.net/archives/708-Personal-Letter-from-Satan-to-Paulson.html" REL="nofollow"> Personal letter from Satan to Paulson. </A>Jean ValJeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03415115686001808051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7514357.post-11772025579231611222009-01-05T05:03:00.000-08:002009-01-05T05:03:00.000-08:00My biggest complaint about the article was that th...My biggest complaint about the article was that they suggested a housing rescue with a readjustment to the basis of the mortgage based on the current appraised value. Essentially this is the do-over plan that people on this site have been pissed off about. I'd be okay with that as long as we renters each received an equivalent lump sum cash payment.Mr. Outspokenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15085388568965402121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7514357.post-60372362630736225872009-01-05T04:04:00.000-08:002009-01-05T04:04:00.000-08:00The End of the Financial World as We Know ItCompan...<A HREF="http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/04/opinion/04lewiseinhorn.html?_r=1" REL="nofollow">The End of the Financial World as We Know It</A><BR/><BR/>Companion article:<BR/><A HREF="http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/04/opinion/04lewiseinhornb.html?em" REL="nofollow">How to Repair a Broken Financial World</A><BR/><BR/>Great articles by Michael Lewis and David Einhorn.

Housing prices didn't fall 23% in non-bubble zones, they fell 40%+ so far in bubble zones, while prices in non-bubble zones were essentially flat or with small declines. It's the old Average vs Median debate.<BR/><BR/>Casey-Shiller also has some odd omissions. Why is Las Vegas on the list and not the much larger Houston? Why are KC and St. Louis not on the list, while Portland and Tampa are? Nashville is larger than a number of the cities on the Casey-Shiller. Why is it not included?Lou Minattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16096986232572086745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7514357.post-16378981031885314822009-01-04T15:05:00.000-08:002009-01-04T15:05:00.000-08:00CWOC = Chicks WithOut Clothes?
