Empty or Full, Which Half are You?

Every day there is someone's opinion on the economy.  In particular, I am focused on the housing market.  I know opinions are like belly buttons - every one has one, but....How can there be a so many conflicting opinions???

The LA times just posted an opinion that said there is no pent up demand for housing and hence there will really never a be quick recovery and it will take many years to see any real appreciation.   But, the National Association of Realtor's, economist, says just the opposite - we have pent up demand, and it is, and will fuel a housing recovery.

I guess the glass is half full, but full of what?  I think the housing sector will recover slowly, but definitely in the next few years....So i guess I think it is half full.

What about you - full or empty?

I always like to think it is half full.  Though this has been a liitle rough to say the least, it is a cycle of business.  They happen all the time.  People will always want to own their own home - they just might not try to use it as a "get rich quick" scheme.
