I heard during the stock runnup of the late 90's that housing and the stock market compete for dollars. When one is up, the other is experiencing downward force, and vice-versa.
Problem here is that this currently popping housing bubble is being described more and more as a credit bubble, which means that if everyone is tapped out, they aint gonna buy anything, which is usually not good for the stock market.
I dunno. Gimme another beer.
