yeah the tech companies in silicon valley are doing well. Real estate in silicon valley is also doing well relative to the rest of the country - mostly because we didn't have the same level of a bubble. Buying a house here is actually ok right now, cheaper than last year and not really crashing. I don't know when/if prices will go up. But this is not really florida - it is more like NYC with very few desirable properties available. The commercial side of N California is time to buy though. Dirt cheap prices, 80% off 99 prices in some cases, occasionally even more. As for tech stocks its hard to say. I like apple. But apple has been flat for about a year.
