To continually focus on the US market at this point regarding commodities is missing the larger story.

Life is going on without the US.

BTW - the house next door that has been on the market for over a year and was in foreclosure has been sold to a young Chinese couple. Showing them the ropes on how to be good American surbanites - LOL

Two interesting points.

1. He was able to buy a house with only a H1-B visa (no green card). No problem at all in finding financing.

2. Qualified for the $8,000 new home buyer tax credit.

Meanwhile, a good friend down the street lost her job and has been dicking around with her bank to renegotiate her loan. A year and counting.

Best government money can buy
