that's true.. but tomorrow is the existing home sales report.. and foreclosures and repossessions are included in that number.. isn't that ironic.
so if it's better than expected, which is to be expected, the market will use it as a rally excuse.
it doesn't seem to matter to them that the "home sales" figures occur at much lower prices or are not even true sales, just swaps between banks.
