I just read through a couple of postings in autumn 2001. It is amazing to see that the direction of the builders and related stock prices (going up) was unrelated to then measured fundamentals (housing was declining then too). If I didnt see the year a whole lot of stories would nicely fit into summer and autumn 2007. Perhaps... we are in the same phase, post- bubble, with people just realising that some rocky years lie ahead. or this: Message 16444278 "The real estate bubble is really bursting! Why, I had to wait 11 full days just to get an offer ..." Took 5 more years until it started to cool off a little. Perhaps: if the fed didnt "save" the growing bubble by their massive liquidity provision for the next few years it would have bust earlier... What do we learn? A possible collapse can be avoided this time again?
