Nice link, thanks LG.

EDIT: It's pretty breathtaking how fast it rolls over once building finally slows...check out California 1983-84 and Arizona '89-'90

LG,

I did a cursory study of recent mortgage rates trying to pin down a limit on the liquidity bullet AG has to put refinance money in the pocket of consumers. It appears that there was a limited high rate window through the summer of 2000; the sales in this period are prime for conventional refinances. Once this consumer segment is exhausted it will take a radical break in rates to 6% and below to make a new wave of refinancing and this AG bullet viable.

This would suggest that any secular bear market in stocks could mean strength in treasuries and bonds if the economy falls into an extended recession

LG,i am sitting on land that is NOT residential,but is land coveted by the very rich for their private usage.And as what is called "water front land" in these parts is getting scarce the pricing has escalated 2,000% percent over the last 25years.
I am in no mood to sell for personal reasons(one beinng i live there,LOL!).
But it is my feeling this type of land will remain price stable or even escalate more in bad times,because the very rich are always very rich--and they covet private hard to get 'postcard' hide-aways even more in dark-times.Is this a stupid conception???? Max
