    I'm an independent investor. I make my living from the returns on my investments. I work at home, in the northern part of the San Francisco Bay area. I spent most of my career as an executive in high-tech, although I also spent time in banking. Down to one kid in university now!

The Anderson Forecast

May 30th, 2006 by reality

David Thornburgh of the UCLA Anderson Forecast talks about the housing bubble. An excellent and entertaining summation of the facts, although the politically correct conclusion is inconsistent with the details of his presentation. Clearly a well-trained Keynesian (the business cycle is the result of “shocks”), he rebuts many of the myths about housing, although he fails to talk about some of the key issues - exotic financing, speculation, etc. Definitely worth the hour, though.

Note that this dates from February 2006.
