1)The Stock Market. It's going the direction as Fed Expected.So it will go up for some time. We may see some corrections.
2)The Mortgage rate. the rate goes up about 0.5% higher thanthe history lows around Nov 5th. What happened during the past 30 days? We all know that the economy grows... but slowly;the job created at this holiday season. But this rate levelis not what Fed wanted. It will go down.
Will it go down to the previous low? Not sure. Maybe. Maybe not.Personally I think it will not go that low any more. But who knows.Maybe another European country in financial crisis a few monthlater.
3)Loan Programs. From the recent rate ran, we know that the ratecan go up fast. And it may not go down if the economy strengthconfirmed. It will be in 2011 or 2012? Nobody knows. But thatday will come. I prefer my borrowers take a little bit longerterm loans. That's why I did not promote too much for 5/1ARM.This program is good for those who think the risk is minimum.
4)Real Estate Market. It will be stable soon. It may go up or down a little bit. But it's the time to get stableized.It's the time to get some properties to hedge against the inflation, or move up to a big house.
5)Job Market & Unemployment Rate. The Unemployment rate willbe a little bit better, but not that siginificantly better(and everybody knows). The congress did not approve the unemployment benefits. It will push those people to try to find a job. And they may want to find "any" job for a pay check. But the spending power will be affected. Someone calcualted, it's around 200Million.
