U.S. Housing Bubble
Tue, Nov 28 2006, 09:58 GMT
by Marina Schiaffino
U.S. Housing Bubble
Wikipedia defines the Housing Bubble as: "A type of economic bubble that occurs periodically in local or global real estate markets. It is characterized by rapid speculative increases in the valuations of real property such as housing until they reach unsustainable levels relative to incomes and other economic elements, followed by decreases that can result in many owners holding negative equity."
In fact, owning a house is becoming impossible since the last 10 years. Houses everyday become more and more expensive creating a market bubble that, sooner or later, will explode. FX markets will surely react broadly after this explosion, but when will it come?

Analysts Comments
- Tony Juste, FX Advisor at FXstreet.com
"The housing market is on a bubble and it will sooner or later burst. Although this may sound familiar, the reality is that neither prices nor volume of units sold are decreasing at a pace that would anticipate such scenario, and that both credit houses and construction companies are 'the new gold' for placing that money one has destined for investments. However, if one had to speak from a chartist point of view, the trend looks too old and too exhausted to be sustained for a much longer period and a correction or even a reversal is likely." - FXstreet.com
