B.S. = “Bubble Speak”
I hate B.S. (“bubble speak”), that is, people who keep saying there’s a bubble. Since 2002, when I first wrote about this on my website, I de-bunked the “B.S.” of a national real estate bubble.

So the sky is falling, is it? This is the first time we’ve seen nominal prices fall in some 40 years, says the experts.

But, financing at today’s low interest rates gives you […]
