According to my housing pricing model, it is related to mortgage interest rate, the money supply, ( liquidity), Dow Jones index and unemployment rate foreclosure rate, as foreclosure provide a third of cheap houses in the market, it will drag house prices, down.
Temporary closing the foreclosure gate will provide support of housing prices. but when the get open , it will drag the housing prices down again at record unemployment will lead to weak housing sales demand .
The housing price slump will be delayed to later foreclosure gate open.
banks will be facing increased risks in repeating subprime crisis in future housing price plunge at current very low capital ratio ( only 2 -5 %)

I warned on this blog since 2007 that excessive rate cuts, trillion dollar housing, banking bail out and tax rebate will not help housing market slump.
Let the market supply demand run its, own correction course.
Tax rebate, stimulus only destroy market mechanism , to let home buyer rely on further help, and delay and destroy their demand pattern.
Based on our tracking last 30 year global housing market demand , prices pattern in recession, Housing market only rebound 6 onths to a year after government stimulus and rate cuts.

With personal income trailing spending, sluggish stock market and export growth, US consumer spending , consumer confidence , housing price rebound are not sustainable!
these were due to second quarter housing tax credit of 8000 , auto incentive and tax rebate, and bullish stock market wealth gain. with all these program expired now, we are facing existing and new housing sales plunge to record low, stock bullish index plunge to record 21 low. housing prices will resume to downturn and soaring foreclosure rate  for the rest of the year!.
US economy will getting worse as continued housing market slump, at record jobless rate despite record low interest rate,  any drive to prove lower interest rates will not help and housing rebound and prevent economic double dip recession , July consumer spending surge is not sustainable, as we are facing China credit tightening economic cooloff from GDP of 11 % to 8 % by year end and Asian countries India, Korea, Australia rate hike fight housing prices bubbles will cut our export growth.. Euro are debt crisis will drag GDP to 1 %, Japan facing near recession, with stimulus facing slowdown ahead.
US second GDP only grow 1.6% even with Fed's aggressive MBS buy back, housing, auto incentive program We will expect the second half GDP much below 1 % with all these stimulus program removed since April.
In the mean time we are facing trilemma situation with record personal, business, government debt and excessive liquidity all ready endange rcredit rating and inflation fear
That is why US stock bullish index plunged from 30 to 21 ( close to 2009 March low of 19 , Dow Jones index will test 9000- 9900 ahead

    • Higher banks capital requirement alone can not stop, prevent banking, financial crisis.
      We must tracking into the root causes of current which was caused by out dated monetary policy and unreliable CAPM financial decision models which created housing bubble burst and asset prices bubble burst trillion dollar market loss due to bet on the wrong side of macro, financial economy and investment scenario.
      I have been warning global economist, market analysts in China, US, Asian, European central banks, financial market risk management conferences that global central banks, financial market decision models still using 30 year old classical monetary economic theory with monetary policy based on conventional money supply growth tie in CPI inflation and GDP , ignoring financial, industrial assets ( oil, commodities, housing, equities, bond ) prices impact on CPI, and scenario resulted underestimate the asset prices bubbles impact on macro, financial, industrial markets, resulted bubble burst, run away inflation, credit , financial crisis, recession..
      While the financial market decision models supported scenario still rely on classical capital market asset price model based on statistical, probability models fail to relate macro, financial, industrial economic impact on daily asset prices, resulted betting on the wrong scenario , trillion dollar market loss
      Even 100 % efficient market with all the market information can not stop speculators using daily investors sentiments ( government ,business, economic information ) to push overheated bubbles to burst and financial crisis.
      Only top down, bottom approach approach proactive structural monetary , economic, fiscal policy to include asset pricing mechanism into inflation, interest rates, and using top down, bottom up approach in asset pricing mechanism, tracking monetary, economic, fiscal policy and impact on macro, financial, industrial economic and daily asset prices and investors sentiment can track, predict last 20 year global financial crisis, recession.

    • This seasonal sales rebound as the increasing demand from April to June into the peak housing sales demand into summer.
      This improvement in demand will peaking out after t summer demand is decline in Sept.
      And most of this demand is among the distress housing slump with housing prices plunged 30- 50 % and foreclosure make even making better bargain.
      But the high end luxury housing and commercial real estate just down 10 % have a long way to go in 30- 50 % price correction
      According to my research of last 30 years global housing prices bubble bursts price mechanism, despite the average, housing price plugned 32 % from 2006 peak, the high end luxury housing prices still holding up only down 10 %, due to supported by excess liquidity resulted banking finance stock prices rebound and stock makrte 50 % rally. However, these housing prices must crash 30- 50 % by the end of our recession and stock market correction in the year ahead, s we will facing rate hikes resuled double dip recession. Any housing prices bubbles can not be complete, until the high end luxury and commercial real estate make 30- 50 % correctiopn, Any bail can not help , it, just like trillion dollars rebate and rate cuts can not stop housing prices plunged 32 % till now! details can be found on http://www.osawh.com/mortdefa.htm http://www.osawh.com/macro.htm http://www.osawh.com/SP500.htm http://www.osawh.com/assetbub.htm

    While housing markets sales rebound in distress area due to economic stimulus 8000 tax credit for first time buyers. leading to May foreclosure drop 6 % from April. However, the soaring jobless rate at 9.4 %, ( despite job loss in May drop to 345000 and claim drop from 663000 to 601000 will not be sustainable). With unsold house inventory stood at 11 month, housing price slump continue to spread into wider area, due to soaring jobless rate. and foreclosure rate will be back to 10 % due to soaring 30 year mortgage rate from 4.6 % to 5.6 %. will drag future housing price and consumer retail spending

    Do not get carried away of a few improvement of home sales and ISM, that is just seasonal factors of increasing demand going into summer travel and housing boom peak sales ( school off for moving) The worst of mortgage, credit, financial crisis and recession is not over for Bank of America, Citi and banking industry, despite trillion dollar bail and removing toxic asset and buying banking stocks , trillions dollar additional writedown will continue pouring in from soaring jobless rate, consumer, business loan defaults, foreclosure rate at 9- 10 % and falling housing prices through out this year.
    Most, economists and even Roubini are influenced by the stock market rally , excessive banking finance liquidity , getting convinced that recovery in insight!
    No quick recession recovery insight. It is pre matures and over optimistic to call the quick recovery. current optimism has been bssed on tow month stock market rally and trillions dollar bailout and stimulus resulted doubling in money supply growth resulted excessive liquidity in banking, stock market, leading to investor optimism and a few housing sales, ISM data. However these signs are not sustainable, as long as continued housing price slump, buildup in unsold house inventory, soaring foreclosure, jobless rate will drag consumer, business spending , leading to continue widening in consumer debt, loss in stocks and home liquidity wealth, repeating Japans 1990 housing bubble burst resulted 10 year recession /slow growth ,leading to prolonged recession through this year. Especially current market rally is repeating last year second quarter tax rebate resulted consumer, business spending rebound resulted GDP growth of 2.8 %, will not happen this year, as already seen in April retails sales plunge. and stock market will going through W shape correction this summer as disappointed U shape recession recovery drag economy into US and global recession early next year details on http://www.osawh.com/macro.html http://www.osawh.com/mortdefa.htm  http://www.osawh.com/SP500.htm
Despite rate cuts, even to -5 %, Housing bottom and   credit crisis ends only after the end of recession, the jobless rate peaking out. With 11 month of unsold housing inventory and recession drag us into next year, after economy is out of recession. There is no incentive for hoe buyer in falling housing prices and can not afford the low monthly income with interest rate only small part of it), rate cut to - 5 % can not, will not help push loan demand up. Despite some distressed housing are ( with price down over 30 %) like northern  California, Florida housing sales pick due to bargain hunting , most of countries, like New York, Seattle, Boston continue to slide into 20- 30 % decline, drag national price plunge 32 % from 2006 peak to 30- 40 % decline early next year. details on http://www.osawh.com/mortdefa.htm http://www.osawh.com/SP500.htm http://www.osawh.com/macro.html

    Despite these five encouraging banking, finance indicators improvements, We are still facing weakening real industrial economy, dropping demand, and prices ( PPI ex-food down 3.7 %,, falling housing prices, soaring job cuts.
    We are in the phase II of financial crisis, Recovery in banking finance.
    Stock market 30 % rebound, misguided us into overoptimistic over the recovering of banking, financial crisis, recovery.
    The 8 trillion excess will stay in banking, finance sectors gradually eating away by continued housing price slump resulted mortgage default bad loan and credit card default due to soaring job cuts and business loan default due to plunging consumer, business demand in deep recession.
    The banking, finance sectors credit financial crisis will not be fully recovered until 6 month after consumer , business demand rebound,
    housing market slump and job cuts stabilize, and economy out of recession. that mean next year.
    It is premature for any bull market stock rebound, until economy out of recession!
    details on predicted on this blog and Wall Street Journal 2007 market beat and housing development that US housing bubble burst with housing prices down minimum 30 % through 2009, despite rate cuts, bail out,.8 trillion dollars bail out and buying distress, toxic asset, saving mortgage industry, since last year, US housing price continue to drop as I predicted.
    Everyone from central banks, banking, investment banks, home buyers need good lesion of industrial finance, tracking monetary, economic, fiscal policy impact on industrial (housing) supply, demand and prices ( bubbles) for the what , why, how and timing of housing investment and sustainable monetary policy for growth and stability.
    I warned on 2003 Asia, China finance, capital market conference, Singapore, Shanghai that US, China facing housing bubble.
    and warned again on 2007 Peking University Nobel Econometric conference, Wall Street Journal blog that US, and global housing price bubble burst, down 30- 50 % through 2009, drag gloobal stocks into 50- 70 % correction and deep recession.

Bank of America 4Q 16 billion loss is inherited from merger of Merrill Lynch, with total 136 billion bailout out does not solve Bank of American nor US banking, credit, financial crisis, as we are still only hafl way to housing market price slump, with currently down 19 % will continue plunge 30 % through second half this year. which will lead to more continued loan, credit loss, will lead to write down, operating loss for the best bank like JP Morgan, and additional loss out of Bank of American’s Merrill Lynch bad assets. US investrors speculators the market botton at 7900 will be drop into bear trap in the month ahead with Dow Jones plunge to below 7000 and SP below 700 and NASDAQ to 1250. details on http://www.osawh.com/mortdefa.htm http://www.osawh.com/SP500.htm

Monetary Policy Impact on Global Banking finance, housing performance
Based on my research of last 30 year global housing price bubble burst, the housing price plunge depend very much on the size of housing price bubble, and macro ecnomy ( consumer spending, unemployment). With US housing price bubble gain 400 % insome cities, hosuing price must have 50 % correction, while on average, hosuing price must correct 30- 50 %, natioanl housing price must slump 30 %., as I predicxted on Wall Street Journal market beat and this blog since Set. 2007.  therefore we have to wait to see the full imact of 7.5 % unemployment,
-6 % GDP contraction, and -10 % plunge in consumer, business spending next year, before housing price slump stopped, the Schiller index will be down 30 % then, cities like NY, Seattle prices still too high, it have to plunge 20 % to see any bottom, as to feel the the massive job cuts impact on it.  details on www.osawh.com/mortdefa.htm  www.osawh.com/macro.html

What we need is the goal, mission , performance  tacking of these 10 items, and use proactive structural
approach to implementing these items, provide the what, why, how and timing of each problem,Take reduce foreclosure for example, find out why it fail to effectively cut foreclosure rate is due to most home owner lost their jobs, even, cut payment, mortgage rate can not help. You will find out that continued housing price slump drag economic deeper into recession, soaring job loss made things tougher. All these problems must integrating current, future macro, financial , industrial ( housing), economic for solution.

Almost each day, we are adding to this long list of bailout programs, trillions dollar caused by poor financial decision and , betting on the wrong side of housing, and investment price. speculation over structured finance products related to mortgage investment MBS, CMBS, CDO, CDS, ABS, and hedging. I warned this blog and Wall Stret Journal Sept. 2007, that subprime crisis will be spread into credit , financial crisis, and excessive rate cuts, bail out can not stop the burst of super housing price bubble, drag us into 1980 style double dip recession through 2009. I predicted trillions dollar will be needed to fill this mess, till next year. We need proactive structural simulation of monetary, economic, fiscal policy impact on macro, financial, industrial economic and daily financial , housing, market investment , risk valuation. We need more on this proactive structural approach our problem, causes of credit, housing, financial, crisis, recession. Job creation is the key to stop housing market slump, tax rebate only create short term spending resulted inflationary and die away afterword like March rebate only boost second quarter GDP, can not stop slump thereafter.. details on www.osawh.com/mortdefa.htm www.osawh.com/riskm.html www.osawh.com/ABS.html

Abstract

This paper demonstrated  Huang’s 30 years pioneering proactive, structural equities, housing asset prices bubbles bursts spread into credit, financial crisis Operations Simulation Analysis (OSA), applications to US national and regional sub-prime and prime mortgage default crisis, credit crunch early warning
Thousands simulators have been developed, implemented for strategic investment, markets, credit risks simulation integration early warning for 30 million China, US Taiwan 15 cities 30 million institutional, private investors, global finance, capital market QFII, QDII, real estate, insurance, credit rating agencies, multinational CEO, seniors executives, lectures, workshops and 24 global central bank governors, banking, financial crisis, Hedging risks management conferences.
These artificial intelligence neural net based expert systems integrated macro financial, industrial econometrics OSA
tracking, forecast years, months ahead of the causes, onset, spread, recovery, early  warning of last 20 years global banking, financial and housing ,asset bubble burst , credit default crisis, financial crisis..
These dynamic deterministic OSA
 tracking global central banks monetary, economic stimulus, fiscal bailout policy impact on macroeconomic inflation, GDP, unemployment rate , daily Fed fund rates, mortgage interest rate, currency, commodities, housing mortgage demand, prices impact on  credit rating,  prepayment, defaults, systemic risks, recovery modeling, financial futures, credit derivatives, CRE, CDO, ABS, MABS assets class securitization pricing, credit and cash flow performance, hedging risks early warnings, integrating monetary policy impact on asset market prices risks into credit risk,  supporting financial, systems investmentmacro-economic systemic risks , Basel II  credit, markets , operational risks control.
Huang directed Zhang to extend these OSA simulators to Nobel laureate  R. Engle’s Spline GARCH and co-integrate into Granger causes and casualty analysis. mortgage default and housing prices and ABS pooled asset credit and performances are related to deterministic exponential spline, combination of macro , monetary  economic and  time series dynamics . These unconditional mortgage default probability is estimated for US , China, Asian (
 China, India, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam ) UK national, regional housing prices bubbles, and mortgage default probability , credit crunch over recent housing boom and bust cycle
the following OSA approach rigorous equations have been tracking successfully 100 IMF members countries central banker monetary policy impact on the macro-economy :
Inflation rate = F (Money supply growth rate %, Commodity index, Dollar exchange rate)
GNP = F (Consumer spending growth %, Interest Rate, Export Growth Rate)
Property prices = F (Consumer spending growth rate %, Interest Rate, stock index)
NAPM = F(Money supply growth rate %, Interest Rate, stock index)
Business, consumer spending = F(Fed fund rate, Nasdaq annual change, Yen exchange rate, unemployment rate )

These analysis also supporting Huang’s 30 years
OSA tracking the causes, onset, recovery, early warning of mortgage default credit crunch  in which mortgage default risks are caused by 40 year low mortgage rate resulted speculative purchase and financing created soaring housing prices bubbles and banking, finance stock prices  wealth gain bubble, the default rate soared as mortgage rate rebound from 5.7 % to 6.7 % ,and jobless rate soared from 4.4 % to 5.5 % in 2007 ( now at 7.2 % in 2008, 9.4 % in May 2009)  while housing prices peaking out
down 20 %  increased sub-prime home buyer prepayment and monthly interest payment cost and soaring jobless rate  .
Despite monetary policy is not direct cause of default due to central bank only focus on underestimated  core inflation and unemployment (exclude food, energy cost ), ignoring housing and equities, commodities prices bubbles.  Excessive rate, tax cuts lead to over spending in personal debt and business spending created  trillions dollar housing and stock s market wealth gain , excessive liquidity speculative bubble asset bubbles growth to big for any central bank monetary policy to handle., lead to final bubble burst.
  This model shown by Dr. Warren Huang  Sept  2007 on Wall Street Journal Market Beat and Real Estate Development blog that  Current US regional housing price slump will continue through   2009 plunge 30- 50 %  Schiller 20 cities national  housing price index plunge 32 %  May 2009 from 2006 peak,  drag economy into  2009 deep recession by soaring job cuts,  foreclosure default, and plunging consumer, business spending, stock prices bear market  50 % correction , despite Fed monetary easing, rate cuts , trillion dollar bail out, m2money supply growth soared to 7.7 % and zero fed fund rate. Default rate soared to 12 % in  northern California  with 7.5% jobless rate, while national default at 9  % with 7.2% jobless rate..tracking local manufacturing ( Michigan, Ohio, finance (NY, Boston, SF) , agricultural ( California)  job loss, and national Fed monetary policy, local mortgage rate impact on regional housing loan default ( 12 %)  and housing prices
.
 
   These models improve current probabilistic, statistical CAPM  asset pricing and Monte Carlo default simulation, oversimplified macroeconomic,  mortgage bond spread, credit rating and hedge fund,  real estate asset prices in structural finance CRE, MABS, CDO applications. tracking, forecast month ahead global  monetary, policy, foreclosure impact on national and regional housing prices avoided trillion dollars loss due to betting on the wrong side of credit derivatives, speculation over the business, economic news resulted past , current mortgages loan default and  stock market crash.

Speculators are working on both the short and long side of investment, speculate on the fundamental and business, economic news.
Daily volatility with 50 % trading on FNM ( it rebound 50 % from its yesterday low and US Bank Corp is rebound from 20.5 to 24 finaly settled at 22.4 all follow my two master hands ( macro financial and industrial economic impact on corporate earning, stocks price which tracking forecast last 20 years global 20 industrial sectors corporate performance, daily stock prices.
Take today as example, Dow Jones plunged to 10900 is indicating macro financial economic investors sentiments at new low, drag banking mortgage sectors deteriorating housing market slump, credit defaults crisis, job cuts, consumer confidence, and soaring inflation resulted widening writedown and loss, drag
FNM and most other banking, mortgage, financial stocks for new low. speculation on oil rice plunge due to profit taking is not sustainable as it did in the past, GM rebound in bear market is typical bear market rally, with bad news on auto sales and recession, GM is getting nowhere despite restructuring.
Any stock market bear market correction will continue for a while , spreading from banking, financial, housing to retails, hightech after current rebate check run out.
Dow Jones is heading for 10000 soon, NASDAQ for 2000.

I kept warning since last Sept on this blog that housing price slump, soaring foreclosure, will spread into national and regional banks, FNM and Freddie Mac and credit crisis into this summer, it will be premature for bottom fishing in banking, finance, housing sectors. Soaring oil, commodity price and inflation, plunging stock markets will cause additional pressure on inflationary recession and postpone housing market recovery   www.osawh.com/mortdefa.htm www.osawh.com/UShouswksp.htm  www.osawh.com/opthedge.htm

From my tracking , proactive structural simulation last 30 year US/global housing price bubbles fundamental mechanism are driven by demand side housing, equities, wealth and monetary, policy. Housing price slump is due to soaring prices beyond affordability and investment incentive in poor underlying fundamental, ( soaring job cuts, unsold inventory, plunging consumer confidence). current housing price have to plunge t ( down 50 %) to more attractive affordable, as it did in all
housing bubble burst, Even rate cuts, stimulus package will not change the fundamental supply demand market forces.

Comment by Warren Huang- May 15, 2008 at 2:03 pm on How to identify  and control asset bubble on Wall Street Journal Real Time Economic Blog

From my tracking, proactive structural simulation of last 30 years global energy, housing, IT bubbles burst results shown that all asst bubble formation can be identified 3 years ahead, I warned on Asian/China finance, capital market conference, Singapore, Shangahi, Beijin, Nov. 2003 that US /China housing bubble overheating, facing rate hike summer 2004,
US and China central banks did rate rate to cool housing, Fed cut money supply growth from 6 % to 2005 3.5 %, after Greenspan 17 raise rates, housing sales and price start peaking out in 2006.  However, after Bernanke stop rate hike in 2006, money supply growth up from 4 % to 6.5 % in 2007, excessive liquidity resulted subprime mortgage crisis,
If Fed continue adapt tight money policy credit rating through 2007, it will stop many questionable sub prime loans. despite housing bubble may burst, we will be already recovered now.
Fed should not yield to political pressure in dealing with asset bubble, same was true for 1996- 1998 IT stock prices bubble identification and continue credit tightening ing. will avoided 2000 bubble burst ( Nasdaq would just up to 3000 not 5100, much small bubble easier to deal with.
China follow US Fed, enjoyed macroeconomic and housing market soft landing in 2005 inflation down to 1.2 % after China Peoples Bank reduce the money supply growth from 24 to 13, housing price was up 200 % in 2004, plunged 30 % in 2005, stock prices plunged from 2000 to 1100. However, after CPBC follow US FEd stop credit tightening, money supply explode from 15 % to 20 %, stock market soared from 1400 to 6300, housing prices up 300 % again in 2007. and forced CPBC 6 times rate hike, 14 time raise bank deposit ratio to remove excessive liquidity from housing stock markets wealth gain, stock prices plunged 50 %, housing prices still up 13 %, despite housing sales slump,
I warned on this blog last Sept that US housing price slump continue into this summer despite aggressive rate cuts, drag economy into recession, stock market bear correction.
We still have one third cities housing prices continue growing bubble, making bigger bubbles despite housing sales slump and doubling foreclosure , mounting job cuts, slump inn consumer confidence.This proactive, structural US national and regional housing prices, and mortgage defaults simulation forecast years, ahead national , regional housing price.
So, the answer is yes, Asset prices can be identified and asset price bursts, credit, financial crisis can be avoided by a decisive , independent central bank applying proactive structural decision simulators and predictive monetary policy, economic, fiscal policy control the bubble growth, before it getting too big.
Theseresults have been presented to 12 countries central bank governors, risk management conferences last 12 years, covering the causes, oset, dpread, recovery, early warning of global financial crisis and asset prices bubble burst. details on www.osawh.com/riskm.html www.osawh.com/Fedcrisab.htm www.osawh.com/centmaf.html www.osawh.com/recession.html

Panic selling in FNM, FRE, LEH in speculate another Bear Stearn meltdown. These share has some speculative value, despite  rebound 50 % from their low today, in bear market rally avoided these share, until  the dust is settled down, it will retrace its low soon.

From the data shown we, still have one third of cities Housing price gain, despite average price down 6.7 %.
From the past US global housing bubble bursts, we are still at the early stage of housing price correction, this is especially for high end housing, just too high to be afford. and the mounting job cuts, foreclosure will continue drag housing prices slump into this summer. may be down 30- 50 % in some cites. while the average housing price must down 20- 30 %.My US national and regional housing price can be calculated from national, local unemployment, mortgage rate, money supply growth, foreclosure data.

One more variable to add, the stock price index in regional cities, for high tech cities, use Nasdaq, for banking finance center use DOw Jones, or banking index.
like Seatle, San Jose use Nasdaq,New York city use Dow Jones index

The trouble in sub-prime crisis are due to poor housing , equities, CDO valuation and credit rating
method, which are based on 30 year old statistical, probabilistic models in pricing and default., betting on the wrong side of investment, over-optimistic over US inflation and economy and housing markets.
As I warned last June , 2007 Peking University, Beijing International Financial Engineering Risk Management Conference to top global investment, housing executives and on this blog last Sept before Fed rate cuts
that rate cuts, can not stop US housing price slump continue into 2008 summer, drag US into recession, US and global stocks into bear market correction, with banking, finance, housing, shares down 50 %, IT, oil, retail and high fliers GOOG, AAPL, PTR shares down 30 %
Only my proactive structural dynamic simulation predicted months, years ahead of the emerging market trend avoided trillion dollar market loss

Trillion dollar recession hedge by Dr. Warren Huang

Dr. Warren Huang Wall Street Journal Real Time Economic Blog Dec. 29, 2007  

From my 30 years proactive, structural simulation forecast of global monetary economic, fiscal policy impact on global housing, equities, bond, commodities, gold prices:
1. Housing sales, and housing starts will continue follow housing price slump which holding up buy rate cuts supported stock market rally.We will not see the trough, the eventual tough of housing price slump and sales, start trough until stock market end its correction and crash with the housing markets prices next summer.
2. Gold price speculation only on economic fundamental, not on geopolitical events, soaring demand, plunging dollar pushed record oil commodity, gold prices, inflation not by any geopolitical crisis.
3. It is meaningless for checking stock index ending the last day of the year. Stock prices responded dynamics to the price mechanism ( fundamentals, macro-financial economy, sectors supply, demand)
not on any specific calender, regardless January or year end effect. Strong December can not guarantee strong Jan.. Housing slump will drag market into bear correction in 2008.
It is still premature for Soverign Fund (SWF) petrodollar to pick up the financial mess due to mortgage default.
These banking, finance, housing stocks write off have not seen the worst. Early summer of 2008 is much better timing.As Citi make its new low after ABU cash injection.

Dr. Warren Huang Wall Street Journal  Real Time Economic Blog Dec. 27, 2007 Housing price bubble burst cycle                                                
This Shiller home price index does not reflect the housing bubbles burst cause ,onset, recovery and early warning
It is lagging indicator. It did not shown 300- 400 % price gain in coastal cities in last few years bubbles .and San Francisco housing prices still up 7.2 % due to high end housing price gain by all time high stock market resulted wealth.My research tracking last 30 years global housing price bubble burst cycle, indicating, it take 3 years completed the burst cycle, with housing prices plunged 30 %-50 % for high end. 20-30 % for middle range.takes two year to recover.so housing price plunged started last year, will continue through next year as I predicted on this blog 3 month ago detail can be found on www.osawh.com/mortdefa.htm and www.osawh.com/fund2008.htm Comment by Warren Huang - December 27, 2007 at 1:45 pm

Comment by Warren Huang Wall Street Journal Market Beat Blog - November 30, 2007 at 8:24 pm According to my mortgage default model, default rate is closely related to mortgage rate, money supply, housing price, stock market price, Fed fund rate.
freeze the mortgage rate will work only if the house price and stock price both going up or freezed too.
Default rate will go up with housing and stock price definitely to plunge till next summer. Fed rate cuts and freeze will not be able to cut housing , stock price enough to reduce mortgage default for the sub-prime and jumbo loan. detail can be found on www.osawh.com/mortdefa.htm
