Let's All Rally!

Profile picture for Monrovia21
The stock market had 4 days of gain over the last week and some are saying that this may be a water shed moment in turning the tide towards a recovery.

Let's see what the next few days will bring but if we were to assume that this is the "bottom" we've been looking for, how can we (as an industry) create a rally of our own?

There are some unique opportunities out there and people should be looking for them.

The bottom? Three years away -- there will be a mild uptick in economic activity in Q3 - Q4 2009. Then the bottom will drop out in 2010 and the ensuing depression will be greater than the 1930s.

We will have to come up with a new name for it -- "Great" is already taken. Perhaps "Greatest"? I suggest: the "Millenium" Depression. This will be the greatest world-wide disaster since the plague years of the middle ages.

Have fun kiddos. I suggest real estate agents cultivate a paying hobby. By and large you are good guys and gals, (and are smart), so I suspect you will be OK.

LOL! I don't think 4 days is indicative of a recovery. Nice that you're feeling optimistic though.

I don't think I ever claimed that 4 days meant a recovery. My post was meant to be a call for action in our industry. Sadly, Zillow may not be the place for that. This is my last comunique on this matter.
