Now that the US has decimated it's manufacturing base I believe we're down to one last asset. That asset is simply our quality of life. In other words, we might still be able to sell our actual real estate to foreigners seeking a peaceful life and greater political stability.
Unfortunately we're not looking so great in that regard these days either.

People got ahead of themselves thinking the credit crunch was over given what was a calmer week last week...the yen continued to climb against the dollar. The Fed caused the loose credit problem in the first place and now they're trying to fix it by loosening credit ?
The credit crunch represents a loss of confidence.
When you're running a confidence game, nothing is more important than confidence.

What I’ve learned in the last few days is that the term “plummeting” is an ill-defined term.
Last week they compared the “plummeting” stock market of Black Monday to Friday’s “plummeting” market...one problem the difference in percentage of loss was 22% to about 2.6%.
Seems to me that the MSM are trying to create self-fulfilling prophecies.
