bill gross has a terrific piece entitled 'moooo!' available at bloomberg.

cannot link it using treo.

bottom line, housing is all important and with mortgage rates up instead of down despite all the work done by the fed and the treasury, how will we get higher housing prices?

without higher housing prices, not much else financially speaking can happen.

I was listening to BBC last night.

We usually catch the Beeb at midnight but if we're out or miss it for some other reason, it's available on their web site.

For one half pint bottle of the cheapest bum wine, what was their World Service called before it was the World Service. No looking on the net allowed.

nonsense that somehow the Federal government will "share" in any gains on loans they back/arrange when the home is sold for a profit.

I wonder if any agency or legislative committee or anyone for that matter has done anything to calculate the costs of the bureaucracy necessary to keep track and, more complex, enforce this scheme?

Anyone thought about how utterly simple it will be to sidestep it?

A good example of how perception and theory trump reality in DC.
