"foreign interest in the city ... is at a near fever pitch"

This way if he's sued he can claim that it's not a lie, but a half-truth.

Fever causes hallucinations and dementia.

Exactly. He says something stupid & she reports it. Dumbdeedumbdumb

haha..

I read the url and I thought it was that "unemployment bonuses" were going to drive RE.

Didn't someone try that, that large severance payments would lead to more apartment sales?

It is funny that the most bullish articles are always the ones without any data in them. Just talks of fever and bonuses and irish carpenters.

Maybe that's SteveF's day job.

think some words were omitted:

"foreign interest in [blowing up a landmark building in] the city..."

talk about selective reporting!

If your keeping an eye on the media we are seeing more drum beating for a HOT market.

I see the Hot market too. It's very tiny and far away but, in very low light with a very high powered telescope you can just about make it out. Try squinting!

LIQUIDATE IF YOU CAN Next BIG LEG down starts March 2010

Isn't the speaker making a distinction between "trophy properties" (in which the foreign investors are interested) and "retail properties" (which have further to fall)?
