just a few months ago, CNBC was full of props being wheeled out, saying housing related stks were bottoming or near...now, well...I posted a few months ago, that we just came out of a real estate bubble or mania or whatever you want to call it, and it would be years before anything starts up big again...the excesses need to be wrung out, the sentiment needs to be bearish at an important bottom...we are in that process. The housing stocks look so bad I almost want to buy em, but I'll let it play out more. When we start hearing those same CNBC props saying home builders aren't the place to be, we buy.
