'Deflation? Hilarious'

Remember many are so caught up in saving by not losing in housing during this crash. It is a big deal to them and in a way I can't blame them either. But must look at the back side of all this. I don't know how much longer long term rates can remain this low. What if 4-5 years down the road mortgage rates are 9%, rents and other costs of living are 30%+ higher when the doom and gloomer finally decides to buy a house he was sure bottomed in price in 2009 but already started racing back up in price in the coming stagflation? Who is still winning?

it is tempting to dump dollar now and buy euro/OZ/loonie etc..i wonder at what point euro says too much and central bank there start selling euros..
so far this is only currency trading..the full scope of euro appreciation will be felt acutely in next few months.
I think (hope) some retracement (to ~1.35 is in order (of course giving me an opportunity to dump the sucker)
