greenspan housing marketFormer Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan said in an interview published on Sunday that the US housing slump is likely to deepen more than many analysts expect, recording as much as a double-digit drop.

Dr Greenspan said the decline in house prices was going to be larger than most people expected and that he would expect "as a minimum, large single-digit" percentage declines in US house prices from peak to trough and added that he would not be surprised if the fall was "in double digits".

Also, Dr Greenspan said the bigger long-term risk for the US economy and the global economy was inflation.
