Real Estate.

From my (brief) knowledge of these things. The thing that really blows up the (real)consumer economy is not usually the collapse of the financial asset bubble, but the collapse of the real estate bubble. Definitely the case here in the UK late 80's and also Japan.

Most people, I guess, have more capital tied up in real estate than in shares. Well this is the definitely the case here in the UK.

I am reading everywhere about real estate bubbles in the US about to collapse (CA, especially), and massive expansions in re-financings and new mortgages.

Is there anyway to look at this by looking at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac shares?

Thx. Listening and learning.
