QE2 is Not a Cruise Ship
In the past few weeks I simply tried to nod intelligently when I heard "QE2". I tried to decipher the sound "keweeetoo" but didn't get anywhere. Then when I saw the acronym "QE2", I guessed that it had to with the idea of turning around a battleship because a cruise ship is as big as a battleship. What, if anything, does this have to do with the real estate market?
I read today on Bloomberg.com: "The worst financial crisis since the Great Depression has made sustained price declines, which makes consumers and businesses less willing to spend or invest, a bigger concern to the Fed than faster inflation. For policy makers, the way to spark inflation is to increase the supply of money in the economy by purchasing bonds."
So for my equally perplexed clients and friends, I am referring back to last week's blog post from Steve Harney and the KCM Crew. He and his company, Keeping Current Matters, do a great job explaining market trends and data to real estate agents, home buyer and sellers.
Read on if you'd like to stop fake nodding, too.
