Housing, etc...
Some stuff: • Today's Case-Shiller index (which sadly does not include Bako in its survey) shows housing prices down again in July 16.3 percent. This is probably the most respected home price index around. The release, with a sad nosedive chart, is attached as a PDF if you click on the blue box. True data geeks can download Excel files and other stuff here.
• Bloomberg says a slump is in our future with or without the bailout.
• Was yesterday's stock market crash a Wall Street temper tantrum? Are y'all still for or against the bailout?
