I think there are rumblings that things are bottoming out. At least, that seems to be the cautiously optimistic sentiment that some of the talking heads are saying. Of course, it could just be a
dead cat bounce. I've got a realtor-friend that says that he thinks that home sales are actually starting to improve a bit - locally anyway.
Of course, nothing's just suddenly going to get better tomorrow. It's going to take months and months.
I agree with ya, Peter (so weird to type, agreeing with myself)... I was at the local mega-shopping area this weekend (The Mall, Best Buy, Barnes & Noble, etc) and it seemed as crowded as ever. Hard to park, lines at the checkouts. It sure seemed like people were spending!
