After being one of the few analysts who was correct in stating for the past two years that there is no housing bottom in sight, its time for me to tell you what I see ahead.
Housing pundits are nearly unanimous in declaring that housing markets are showing signs of bottoming. This is nonsense!
Head fake? When has financial catastrophe hit when people (even informed people) predicted?
Ok. Here's my prediction. Team Obams needs this stock market sell off to get the price of gasoline down. Leaks of QE3 will allow the market to climb back up gathering a heard of weak minded voters?
Great Charts combat. I have a permanent page of unfudged numbers here:

I’ll have to ad some of the ones you posted. They all look hideous.

I just read your Jurrow link on housing bust
“Everything is fine today, that is our illusion.”...Voltaire
I saw the Raoul Pal summary here:
The Bad Jobs Report Is Just A Very Small Taste Of The Nightmare That Is Coming
Glenn Beck just read the Raoul Pal information. It was on Business Insider and Zero Hedge. Then you have that free traitor Robert Zoelick (now heads World Bank) saying pretty much the same as Raoul Pal who I never even heard of before. He has described some likely events in a SHTF situation
Could you freep mail where is a better place than banks to put free cash. Under a Raoul Pal scenario there will be bank runs. You won’t be able to get all your money out...only half your money and you will get some kind of BS bond for the rest
BTW-— Did you hear just the other day this treasure hunter saying he located a ship off the Maine coast with 3 billion in platinum on board?

The Port Nicholson, a British steamer, was sailing from Halifax, Nova Scotia, to New York when a German U-boat torpedoed it during World War II, despite a heavy military escort. Four people died, while 87 were rescued.
Since then, it has remained on the ocean floor about 30 miles off Provincetown. The cargo, then valued at about $53 million, was a lend-lease payment to the United States from the Soviet Union.

You Choose.
Will it affect platinum prices?
Getting the platinum to the surface will take a long time in my opinion. So it won’t affect platinum prices much.
When it sank the platinum was worth 64 million. Today it is worth about 3 billion. This is a rough indicator for the inflation we have had since 1943. Though today platinum has more industrial uses than it did in 1943
Yup.
I used to make billions and billions of Schottky platinum silicide transistors.
During one Xmas vacation years ago, someone stole our $50k platinum target out of the stock room at TI.
