Williams... not our type of tea party leader...

And why he is a clear example of why you need to be careful who you tie yourself to as a group.

In an effort to contain the leak that is threatening his credibility;

Swirling the drain..........from Rico

Residential real estate is swirling the drain.

Why? What? Huh? You might fairly ask...especially if you get your news from the media and believe a 'recovery' has started, and believe Obama-Soetoro who claimed 'we have averted a disaster' (thanks to Team Obama).

There are 140 million personal residences in the United States today.
- Zillow says 20 million owners 'plan' to sell their homes if there is any improvement in price.
- Four million existing homes are currently on the market.
- Lennar, Pulte, et al have one million new homes for sale.
- There are one million bank-owned properties.
- Eight million mortgages are late on their payments.

Not very good numbers.

Now consider that the 80 million baby boomers are retiring at a rate of 10,000 per day, many wanting or needing to downsize residences as they age.
- Assuming they are downsizing from a 2,500 square foot home to a 1,000 square foot condo, and/or a 100 square foot assisted-living facility, that is a shrinking of demand of 4.3 billion square feet per year. [Figure roughly the size of San Francisco each year.]

Think the 65 million Gen X-er's are going to pick up the slack in the market?
- I would not bet on it, not with unemployment and taxes climbing...and inflation, serious inflation, has yet to hit.

Take away = It's probably NOT a very safe investment to make right now.

Arizona and the tea parties...

I speculate if my fellow Mainers will be heading to Arizona this weekend. Do border states need to stick together?

Magic. Do you believe in..........from Rico

There was an "old" [read: classic] song entitled "Do You Believe In Magic?"

The COMEX (not for no reason called the CRIMEX by those in the business) had significant "call " options at $1200 spot price for gold expiring today.

Funny, but gold traded just below $1200 spot price (sometimes merely $0.50 below) ALL day.

Once these "call" options (the "puts" too, in fairness) expired as 'worthless' after market close, gold seems now "allowed" to trade above $1,200.

Whiskey-Tango-Foxtrot (WTF)?

Obvious. Blatant.
- Market manipulation, for you fiddy-two percenters a.k.a. Democrats (C).

There was an old (classic) B/W TV show once called "Car 54 Where Are You?" which could be re-done today entitled "CFTC Where Are You?"
