3:00 crowd will be Important Today......!!!!! It's possible that the earlier uptick was more the result of short-covering, than concerted buying efforts...? Given the general lack of commitment in today's session, I'd say the activity after 3:00 will tell us what the big boys are into....? NH property sounds Like a Clean Win Win for you.... and a Smart Move..... No debt... money in the bank... low living costs... new addition.... Congratulations...! 40 min is a long way to drive in your neck of the woods, and that's going to split into 1/4ths shortly as they all want go their own directions... <smile> And nooooow you get to bike with opus-X I ought go hear him play some night.....!

Put me down as saying that this is a RE Top... At a party last weekend, I heard that someone in my old neighborhood listed and received more than $500k for a house that couldn't fetch $150K back in '97. I'm no math major, but that's more than a 200% rise in ~ seven years. On a historical basis, that's gotta be too steep. If rates go up by two points, that's a lot less mortgage people can take on, which in turn should dampen the bidding wars. Like stocks, real estate prices can come down, which happened back in the late 80's. Anyway, I'd love to sell, but where are we gonna go? Actually, what I'd really like to do, is to short that house that just went for $500k+. What kinda reception do you think I would get if I welcomed the people and told them that I just shorted their home? Just kidding. For full disclosure, I also said that we were at a top last year! <g>
