People try to predict the economy not realizing it is not a capitalistic market, its a command economy, central planning! my concern is, instead of having much dollar in bank that could lose value to inflation, do I save in gold to reserve and grow wealth for now, or just hang on?

[Frankweily]

The housing market is inflated and oversaturated with homes being on the market with astronomical price tags just stagnant for months. It is very clear that or generation will be likely one of the most devastating bubble pops in modern history. Seeking best possible ways to grow 250k into $1m+ and get a good house for retirement, I'm 48.

A bank isn't going to tell you not to borrow money.

If supply dramatically increases, it means demand is decreasing. This guy is no different than a car salesman.

Now, are we still surprise that many Americans ended up in the streets and became homeless? The housing market prices had increased, and it's way too impossible for most people in our country to afford it.. and the only option you can have is rent an apartment.. that's it..

[JM-xpte]

$400k used to buy a nice house in a good location. Now its barely enough to buy a used trailer in a trailer park.

Denial isn't just a river in Egypt.

[xavierrodriguez]

too many problems in our country in the United States of America so the housing market going to crash also.

[mayuras]

Bankers will always don’t admit of a slow down, let alone crash! This anchor should research and ask the question that the inventory is actually increasing and price cuts are everywhere. Oh this guy is already showing defensive posture with a fake smile indicating things are not going well!

Looking forward to see to what country the goverment is going to send my taxes to
