With that in mind, it would be impossible for prices to fall that much without investors jumping in at some point during the decline. I’m not exactly sure what that point is, but it is somewhere between 1-16%. Let’s pick the midpoint of 8%. And that my friends, is a reasonable estimate for any correction"" http://www.streeteasy.com/nyc/talk/discussion/3365-poll-growing-majority-avoid-buying-homes And he still won't admit he was wrong. Anyone else care to take his side? LICComment from one year ago: "If a person found a place to live it that they really like, and their life situation is right for purchasing, then of course they should buy. dco would have such a person give up a place that they love because of an unsupported view that prices will drop 30% in a year." "Things are slower now, but that means the market is reverting back to crazy levels from previous ludicrous levels." http://www.streeteasy.com/nyc/talk/discussion/3661-answer-this-simple-question Or his?

DESPARATION steve!
No need to admit I was wrong on the equilibrium comment, because I still believe that statement 100%. The 8% correction estimate was obviously wrong, but I made it pre-Lehman which changed everything, but still wrong.
steve is still saying that he called all of this even he lost everything in the stock market post Lehman. Confucius he ain't
"steve is still saying that he called all of this even he lost everything in the stock market post Lehman."
I did? Oh. Did I send you copies of my statements. I, like everyone, had significant losses (you can't go from Dow 14,000 to 6,500 & not) but I didn't "lose it all," and I've made a tidy bit back.
Your correction statement was wrong. Thank you for admitting it.
I lost absolutely nothing in the stock market becaue I don't own stocks. I own muni bonds, but they are rock solid!

Actually, munis took a major hit. You didn't notice the spread going to unprecedented heights?
You clearly don't watch stocks, RE, or bonds. What the hell are you watching? Perhaps you should get a subscription to a magazine or something before you comment more.
nyc - LMAO!
Juicy: "despEration".
financeguy has my vote.
money market muni funds like Fidelity never "broke the buck". If your money was there you never lost a dime.
nyc--maybe. perhaps alpine is a buy-and-hold investor in muni bonds, in which case the drop in price is really irrelevant. in any case, munis have largely recovered from the market anomalies of late 2008/early 2009.
