    Thanks for detail analysis USC. I like it best when there is a balance market. The way to get more balance is higher rate, I hope the FED going to continue to do the right thing. Perhaps there are many other political factors that our FED and government HAVE to balance with internal to United...

    EV/Plug-in/Other vehicles

    Impressive, if your cars still drive well, and low on the maintainance keep it as long as you can. Even if it's old still a heck lot cheaper than getting a new EV for gas money saving at the end of the day.

    Housing Analysis

    In time of uncertainty, there will be less demand for big ticket items. Couple that with the incoming volatility of the hiking cycles, banks are flush with cash from QT of the FED which banks will reduce the rate to spurs borrowing or encourage more transactions.

    Right! All the boats in the harbor rise and fall at the same volume. I am a bit surprise that long term rate drop. The high rate is needed to bring equilibrium back to the housing market in Irvine and abate the bidding war, where 50 now drop to 5 competing offer. High rate for other places will...

    Precisely, to your points. Irvine cash flow for investors are always not good at all. That?s why you have much less retail investors and corporate investors get involve in local real estates in Irvine and buy up and bid up. Sure you have bidding war still today, but these are organic buyers...

    On another thoughts, if Irvine drop by any amount due to the recessions, let's say 20 %, look to other communities surrounding cities to double that. I will take anyone wager on this.
