1890= Index= 125
1920= 62
1980= Index= 125
This is what you can call as a cup and the handle was as below
2000 = 110
Target = 188
2006 Index= 210
Cup and handle Target was 188.
Population meanwhile increased from 100 million to 300 Million.
So it seems the Rise in Home Prices on a Historic Basis is justified.
*source CFO Asia May 2007
Now consider this:
Intrest rates peaked in 1980.
Intrest rates touched a Historic Low in early 2000
All this should be taken into account
*as this shows there is no Housing Bubble in USA.
If you consider Indian Reality
* One can say we are sitting on a Bubble but US ?
If you consider the above data.
The Housing Bubble bit in US is Very Very Overdone
and not a true picture.
US incomes in 1890 and 2007 are Vastly Diffrent.
So in this respect US housing seems Cheap.
So what is going on ?
Answer lies somewhere below:
* So all i see is a NET- FEAR PSYCHOSIS (NFP)
which has been created in the WORLD Psyche-
The grounds on which this premise is build would have been more justified had the Housing Index been at 1000.
but at 210 and with a correction currently - it might be anywhere around 150.
If from 125 it has gone to 150 in over 100 years or more.
Where is the BUBBLE?
Infact we must ask:
where is the GROWTH in the Real Sense in US REALITY.?
