Home Prices, by Metro Area
(About the numbers: The Case Shiller indices have a base value of 100 in January 2000. So a current index value of 150 translates to a 50% appreciation rate since January 2000 for a typical home located within the metro market.)

The thing that makes economics more of an art than a science is that conditions out in the real world are always changing. Wnile a laboratory experiment controls the circumstances, “the economy” at any given time is largely unique. Factors may be somewhat similar to other times, but economies do not duplicate.
And the fact that economic cycles do not recur at precise intervals does not invalidate the cycles.
Looking at the mass of derivatives we have currently and the direction we’re in, it is probable that there’s a long downside left in this cycle. And there probably isn’t a “cure”. The idea that there is some magic “right” thing to do to fix everything is a myth. A very popular myth. Especially among our “leaders”. The mantra of our leaders is “We can’t just do nothing” when doing nothing and letting the markets work their way out of it is probably as good a tactic as any.
If humans were so damn smart they wouldn’t create messes like this in the first place.

Negative equity is a big deal no doubt but I believe that job loss is what will really create a wave of foreclosures this year.

Obviously negative equity didn’t cause this mess because at the beginning of the mess no one had negative equity. What negative equity will cause is the next wave. Alt-A and Option Arms will default voluntarily and walk away. We’re half way through by my measure.

One big reason loans will continue to default in mass is that no one can afford to sell their home. In my area condos sold for $430,000 to $490,000 are now being sold in foreclosure between $199,000 and $235,000!
