fleck pointed out a great article about Consumer and his lack of mortgage debt. Very interesting and a good point to those who think this is 98' all over again. The pool is running dry!

As for HD I disagree, when things get bad people go to the cheapist source ie WMT. When WMT is hit then its time to panic.
