20 year low – The Burning Platform

Mortgage refinancing applications are down 75% from May of last year. No more increase in disposable income. BULLISH!!!!

Mortgage applications to purchase a home are DOWN 19% over last year. Did you read that correctly? The National Association of Realtors and the captured MSM keep telling you we are in the midst of a housing recovery. How the fuck can it be a housing recovery when mortgage applications are down 19% over last year????

It can’t. The housing market recovery was a sham and a swindle. It has rolled over and is going down fast. Look at the fucking chart. Mortgage applications to buy a house are at 20 year lows. BULLISH!!!!
