"FWIW, I'm now 70% cash and have sold my home and will wait for the right time to make selective investments again." So noted. I know a well known bear, Jas Jain, who made a similar proclimation in 2000 or 2001 about real estate... He waited for about two years for it to crash then bought something in the boonies to live in, at a higher price. I heard Ed Hyman of ISI say the housing market could be just starting to bubble and it might be about where the NASDAQ was in 1996. I make no predictions but I sure like my own equity situation here in the Bay Area where the inventory of quality properties is still tiny. :)
