By the end of the year, America's bubbling housing prices will likely flatten or pop, causing an economic slowdown, economists warned in a flurry of reports yesterday and today.

I think it's more likely that an economic slowdown will pop housing prices than the other way around.

But I could be wrong. :^)

youre actually 100% correct....there has never been a housing price decrease in the USA without a recession preceeding it.

In So Cal in the early 1990s, prices peaked in 1990-91, but the recession began in 1990.

A recession will pop the bubble, the popping bubble will reinforce the recession.


Bubbles dont pop on their own, they need some outside variable to do it
