This is the link: <a href="http://www.economist.com/businessfinance/displayStory.cfm?story_id=14438245">The Economist, House Prices<br /></a><br />There is a chart where you can select different countries to see evolution of the market. Pay attention to the following:<br /><br />1) Price index<br />2) House prices compared with average income<br /><br />Have a look to Spain compared with other markets like US. If this doesn't scare the hell out of you, I don't know what will. Maybe Hong-Kong will give you a good sense of what is to come in terms of prices going down for houses.NewYorkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11765119971835700694noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14368530.post-1800114979788466632009-09-26T19:19:00.001-04:002009-09-26T19:19:12.292-04:00Windows 7: Your PC, your life<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><p><object height='350' width='425'><param value='http://youtube.com/v/46BrgXXXzW8' name='movie'/><embed height='350' width='425' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='http://youtube.com/v/46BrgXXXzW8'/></object></p><p>They are doing a great job in presenting W7 to everyone.
