A question for nonrecourse. How does your view of a 'soft depression' gel with the following data coming out at the moment.
1. Massive rebound in the Baltic Dry Index.
2. Sydney and Melbourne auction clearance rates jumping to 75%+ over the past few weeks.
3. Westpac Melbourne Institute survey of 'is it a good time to buy a house' jumped by another 7% this month, after massive jumps in the previous two months, to the highest reading now since December 2001.
4. First uptick in housing finance after a sharp decline, which history shows is always a precursor to an extended period of further growth. In all six of the previous six major housing finance downturn events over 34 years, the first uptick has been a precursor to an extended period of growth. Now we're at number seven. This is a very bullish signal for property.

NR, do you still think residential property will fall by 50%. If so, what will cause this to happen?
Cheers,
Shadow.
