      The Euro's Long Run Is Finally Over
      I wouldn't be so sure about that: at its current pace, the federal budget deficit will be over $1 trillion this fiscal year (although it probably won't reach that).

      It's called short covering -- you must have heard of it. 'Sell the rumor, but the news.' Also as a result of recent rule changes disallowing naked short selling, all the big players/hedge funds who were doing it -- your average retail brokerage customer cannot naked short sell -- are being forced to cover.

      Ranking Homebuilders by Discount to Book Value
      Or regarding the builders who are trading close to or above book value, it could be that a lot of 'investors' don't know what a value trap is, or could not recognize one if they did.

      Get Ready to Short Homebuilders
      In many areas a majority -- in some cases a large majority -- of the lower priced homes that are moving are REOs. This does nothing for the so-called move up buyers, or those who want to be one.

      NAR Optimists Drubbed by their Own Dismal Data
      Yeah, the end of our housing nightmare is nigh. Never mind about the incredible destruction of wealth that fallen home prices imply, and the effects of that on consumers (home ownership is now over 65%) and the economy.

      3 Reasons To Be Bullish on the Investment Banks
      Given the bad news yet to come -- and when you see the data on deteriorating YoY and QoQ results, mortgage delinquencies, unsold LBO debt, etc, one suspects there's a lot of it out there -- right now the financials look more like a value trap to me. There are sectors that do not appear to be trading on fundamentals, like the homebuilders, and financials may soon fit that bill too, although the Fed's ill-advised actions will give some support short-term. I'll pass.
