Amateur investors tap 401(k)s to buy homes
Reply
In order to get in on hot housing markets, amateur investors are buying up homes and taking risky measures -- like tapping their retirement accounts -- to fund the deals.
"We're seeing many people cash out 401(k)s or IRAs because they want to take advantage of the market," said Sean Galaris of financial services firm LM Funding, based in Tampa. "This new scenario involves people losing significant personal funds since they are financing real estate through retirement accounts, savings and life insurance."
"The decision to take money from your 401(k) is not for everyone,"

This scenario is time sensitive (ish) and really, I had expected 1990 to have been struck by now..... it hasn't so far, so that pushes back the time for a reaction. Missed the bus so as to speak.

AUD/NZD 1 day: Still correcting April-May�s large decline, and should reach 1.2130.
AUD/NZD 1-3 month: The trend decline to sub-1.1960 should resume once this corrective bounce is complete. Relative fundamentals (e.g. RBA easing to 2.0% vs RBNZ stuck at 2.5%) favour the NZD medium term.

Audnzd has been building a base for good few days imo. Futures positioning and BoNZ rhehoric suggests a rebound is possible. Couple of decent tails on daily candles support view of base. I have a position just above 1.20 and will stop just under 200 month sma at 11940. If i am right i will want to scale in above 12125/50. Potential for a multi figure move as this pair has 9 weeks of losses so a spring back will be quite violent when it eventually occurs.

Wells Dry, Fertile Plains Turn to Dust
Reply
Forty-nine years ago, Ashley Yost�s grandfather sank a well deep into a half-mile square of rich Kansas farmland. He struck an artery of water so prodigious that he could pump 1,600 gallons to the surface every minute. Last year, Mr. Yost was coaxing just 300 gallons........when the groundwater runs out, it is gone for good. Refilling the aquifer would require hundreds, if not thousands, of years of rains.
A shift to growing corn, a much thirstier crop than most, has only worsened matters. Driven by demand, speculation and a government mandate to produce biofuels, the price of corn has tripled since 2002, and Kansas farmers have responded by increasing the acreage of irrigated cornfields by nearly a fifth.
At an average 14 inches per acre in a growing season, a corn crop soaks up groundwater like a sponge
the High Plains Aquifer is giving out

love those "customers with increased risk awareness": "House prices have plunged by about 20 percent since 2008. They might not start to recover until 2014, according to ABN Amro estimates. Mortgage lending by Dutch banks is equivalent to about 90 percent of the country�s economy, double the average in the euro area, the central bank said in April.
ABN Amro had 153 billion euros in mortgage loans in the first quarter, with an average loan-to-value ratio of 82 percent. That was unchanged from year-end as the declining house prices were offset by additional repayments by customers with increased risk awareness. Loans exceeded property values in 21 percent of the outstanding mortgage values as of March 31, ABN Amro said."

According to AAA Oklahoma's gas price tracking website, on Sunday, the average price in Oklahoma City for a gallon of self-serve regular gasoline is at its highest point ever, $3.963, breaking Saturday's price of $3.952, which was also a record high.
"It appears at least part of the reason for these breathtaking price spikes is limited gas supplies caused by a couple of refineries in the upper Midwest going offline," said Mai. "But these shortages have only impacted selected locations. For example, the average price for regular gasoline in Texas today is $3.43, which is 47 cents below that of Oklahoma. And Arkansas' average today is 48 cents below Oklahoma's."
In the contiguous 48 states, six have gas price averages Sunday above $4 per gallon: Minnesota, $4.272; North Dakota, $4.204; California, $4.057; Illinois, $4.05; Nebraska, $4.031; and Iowa, $4.002.

This was from the Lloyds Bank Daily Economic Outlook report:
While Bernanke�s JEC testimony is the key event, closer to home its a busy week for UK data and events: CPI , PPI, retail sales, public finances and the May MPC minutes are all released. We, and the rest of the market, expect CPI inflation to have dipped from 2.8% to 2.6% in April, due to Budget effects and the fall in oil prices. The risks, however, are skewed towards a weaker reading. The other main event to watch for is any change in the voting pattern at the MPC meeting. We believe the vote to keep the APF unchanged at �375bn was unchanged at 6:3, although there is a risk that one or two dissenters, including the Governor, may have shifted camp following the more upbeat economic assessment in the latest Inflation Report.
