      Housing Market Shows No Signs of Life
      I once lived in a midst of housing and land buble in Japan. People in those buble years considered 10000 Yen bill nothing but worth 1000 Yen bill. They gave away 10000 Yen as a tip to taxi drivers and anybody who served them. It was just a game who finally gets stuck with overvalued houses and lands.

      Economic Drubbing Should Subside - Temporarily
      The Government and Fed have done the best possible bailout for alleviating any pains at different levels that I hope will consequently shore up economy in the last quarter of the year. We now have to endure whatever pains we are going through. Just look around and find there is no one else except USA to keep the whole world going forward

      Market Outlook: Watch Out, the Signs Can Be Deceiving
      The story I have just read interests me quite a lot. However, I think it is one of the stories anyone can conceive. I do believe what U.S. government has done so far will soon prove to be effective in easing pains the investors have suffered from.

      The Week Ahead: Sell the Rumor, Buy the News
      I stick to the first group The Consensus simply because I believe investors have overreacted to credits-related situation with economic data they found least attractive in the past 5 years or so, thereby exacerbating sell-offs. Election year also has helped them think and visualize the economic situation and outlook deteriorating when only slowing down. Whatever measures US Government and Fed have taken so far and will come up with will drive the economy upward by the end of this year.

      The Week Ahead: One Word - Commodities
      One says that If the credit markets deteriorate, we may find the recent pullback in the stock market may extend 3 (percent) to 4 percent. I just do not want to see this happen at all simply becasue it greatly affects the Japanese stock markets, in which foreign investors are said to participate in 70% of trading.
      I think that not only the week ahead but also the month ahead seems so crucial in determining the direction of U.S. economy.

      Impact of Bad Weather May Spread to China Organic Agriculture
      I am glad to hear that sever winter has distrupted transportation of vegetables from hinterlands where farmers are said to spray heavily insecticides and pestiscdes on vegetables. The reports coming from China via mass media makes us believe that there are no organic vegetables in China. Only heavily contaminated vegetables. Just remember what is happening in Japan where there is a widespread concern over health risks posed by Chinese food products.

      Fine in 2009 (Not So Great in 2008)
      Your comments on US economy makes sense as long as we see some future in Brics economic development. Not only US economy but also other advanced nations depend upon their lower-cost manufacturing capacity and increased purchasing power. A question is how much US can alleviate housing slump if and when Brics begin their economic downturn for some reasons unknown to us yet. At any rate, US requires strong leadership that will help us recover confidence and will make us say "US is the only nation that will change the world for better."
