I very much doubt that QE# is over. real estate is still in the toilet and will be for the forseeable future and someone has to be there to buy the governments debt which is mostly short and medium term. how stupid can you be not try to sell as much long term debt as possible when you know your currency is bound to depreciate? On top of that anecdotally I believe that GM share price being below its IPO price tells me that cars are not exactly flying out of the dealer showrooms. one of the headlines in my local paper says that some general store which is in one of the small towns, is being closed at the end of april, it supposedly was the longest continuously operated general store in the united states. with the decline in construction lunch business dropped off and the owner defaulted on his second mortgage to the previous owner. one more casualty of our declining economy. there was also a sharp gal on tv whose analysis of the new york city commercial leasing market was that it was still a buyers market as the jobs that came back were not higher paying office jobs but fast food, health care, and retail.
