Case-Shiller: Beware the Head Fake
There was some reason to take comfort about yesterday’s data from the Case-Shiller Index—the rate of price declines slowed for the third straight month nationally. But before you break out the champagne and check books, get a dose of what the Wall Street Journal had to say yesterday: The bloodletting may not be over. Here’s…

There was some reason to take comfort about yesterday’s data from the Case-Shiller Index—the rate of price declines slowed for the third straight month nationally. But before you break out the champagne and check books, get a dose of what the Wall Street Journal had to say yesterday:
The bloodletting may not be over. Here’s why: If price declines accelerate for the mid-to-upper end of the housing market, then that could generate enough large declines in values—even among a small segment of the overall housing market—to push the index lower still.
Meanwhile, here in New York (where there’s plenty of “mid-to-upper” properties) housing prices ticked down another 1.6 percent in April for a total of 21 percent off the June 2008 high, as the chart above shows.

ROTFLMMFAO…such ghetto talk. And Whuh think’s I’m ghetto??????????
Yes I have met dibs at one of the Brownstoner events. I have not, on the other hand, met any of the individuals who have asked whether or not dibs exists.
Is the predictable degradation of this thread an example of the Nash Equilibrium? Discuss.

joe, I have met both DIBS and etson and both are really good guys and very knowledgeable. When I started posting here, I said that I am in the team undecided (middle). Even though I own a place and would love to root for team Bull but leaning more with team Bear. I never really got into heated discussions about indicators of Real Estate for NYC but enjoy reading both sides’ reasoning and forming my own opinions.
D. Doesn’t take Brownstoner as seriously as others and writes whatever he feels like it because he’s basically trying to have a conversation with people who clearly rode and continue to ride the short bus (What, BHO, brickoven, cornholedbodega and others).
