    AS:

    "Real income goes up, because housing prices fell"

    You mean the cost of housing, not house prices, or?

    Rents are related to real rates. Another factor is the housing bubble that crowds out renting in favour of ownership and depresses rents.

    There's a couple other questionables. Business output growth has surpassed GDP growth for a long time; the fall in hours looks pretty big; the problem of measuring service prices deflators; and our old friend, hedonic deflators.
    “Now we declare… that the law-making power or the first and real effective source of law is the people or the body of citizens or the prevailing part of the people according to its election or its will expressed in general convention by vote, commanding or deciding that something be done or omitted in regard to human civil acts under penalty or temporal punishment….” (Marsilius of Padua, „Defensor Pacis“, AD 1324)

      the real question is if China and India have overtaken Germany or not.

      I think it depends on exchange course development or how you rate it respectively. Somewhat.

        This was at an NBER / Brookings conference series on measuring service industry prices and productivity.

          I declared the recession over as soon as Baghdad fell.

          The labor problem is still lagging, wages are deflated and more and more service jobs have been outsourced.

          Now, my question for all you experts, is, what the hell is going to happen to housing:

          1) Prices continue to SKYROCKET even through the entire recession

          2) What happens when people actually start making money again and can afford to buy more?

          3) Will the rise in interest rates keep housing prices from going insane?

          4) Should I stay in my apartment for the next 10 years or get a job as a male prostitute to pay for a mortgage on a 200 square foot garage in someone's backyard in the middle of Compton? A place like that carries a mortgage of around $2000 per month easily.

            Broken record: house prices are a bubble. rising interest rates will pop it.

              I believe the beautiful tradition of a more diverse GDP, M&A etc. threads has been hijacked by econo-weenies ((c) GP).

              I want discussions on valuation and strategy

                  The lowest P/E in Vilnius is 11. We had a 60% rally this year. Who gives a flying rats pancreas about Totalfina and Totalschmina

                    So what should I buy in Vilnius after the next wall street crash?

                      3 utilities, 1 oil and one automaker? Is that your portfolio ?

                          I still don't own any stocks. When I start buying, I'll look for low valuations.

                          And I always write naked calls. You should know that by now.

                              True, and I confused that with posting naked anyway.
