California Housing Bubble... or Not?
What is a
bubble? Basically, a bubble exists when a commodity's price
increases beyond its fundamental value, a markup people will pay because
they believe someone else will pay even more for it in the future.
Nobody can predict the future market prices but looking at history we
can make better educated guesses. Use these charts and determine
for yourself if we are in a bubble... or not.
