SAN DIEGO, CA – “Buy low, sell high” is a well-known adage attributed to the legendary billionaire investor and philanthropist Warren Buffett. Looking at today’s super-hot residential real estate market is hard not to wonder how much longer this craziness will continue.

Buyers are in bidding wars to buy homes, multiple all-cash offers with no financing, no contingencies, sale prices tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars above asking prices, double-digit annual home price appreciation, and a very low inventory of homes for sale.

According to the Case-Schiller Home Index, the average annual home appreciation in the 20 major metropolitan areas was 14.6% year-over-year as of this past May. Phoenix had the highest annual price increase of 22.3%, followed by San Diego’s 21.6%, and Seattle at 20.2%.

I vividly remember that back in 2005-2006, at the peak of that last super-hot residential real estate market, many were saying that the market would continue to thrive and prices would go up for at least another ten years.

Yet, by 2007 the home prices started to deteriorate and by 2009-2010 a wave of short sales and foreclosures dominated the previously super-hot markets. The hardest hit places like Phoenix and Las Vegas had property values depreciated in some cases by over 50%.

But this time it will be different… not. If there is one thing certain about real estate (and life in general), it is that it is cyclical. Every boom is followed by a bust, and every bust by eventual recovery and then another boom, etc.

In case of real estate, cycles are usually much longer than those of the general economy and they last, on average, about 15 years. In this particular case, it is important to note, that we are discussing a residential (homes) real estate cycle, which can be quite different from a commercial (investment properties) real estate cycle.

So, where are we today? The interest rates, including on mortgages, are at ultra-low levels. For example, recently our sister mortgage company closed a 15-yr fixed rate loans as low as 1.99%. This is quite remarkable given that the inflation rate is sky-rocketing. Just this past June, the inflation jumped by 5.4% year-over-year.

This was the largest increase of inflation since 2008. At this pace the U.S. is on the trajectory to have a double-digit inflation by 2023. Compare that to annual inflation rates of just 2.4% in 2018, and 1.8% in 2019, and 1.3% in 2020.

Money supply, government debt, and the public spending by the Federal Government are enormous. It seems that not too long ago, when the politicians were arguing about the federal budget, they were talking about millions, or at the most billions of dollars. Now if it is not a trillion, it does not seem to be a big deal.

The U.S. unemployment has been steadily improving since its peak of 16% in May, 2020. As of early June, the unemployment rate was around 5.9%. However, these figures can be misleading as they don’t include folks who are “under-employed,” e.g. went from a full-time to a part-time jobs, or those who earn less now than pre-pandemic.

Additionally, they don’t count workers deemed “permanently unemployed” (unemployed for more than six months) and those who “stopped looking for work”. The “real,” or the so called U6 unemployment rate, is around 9.7%.

So, how all of this translates into the residential real estate market? The current real estate cycle is about 15-16 year old, which is worrisome, but basically, as long as the money is so cheap, buyer demand so high, and supply of available homes for sale so low, the “music is still playing.”

Furthermore, we should not underestimate the “Covid-effect” on housing. One of the reasons why homes became so valuable was because of the lockdowns and the resulting work-from-home, teach-from-home, play-at-home and eat-at-home paradigm shifts.

If the cycles are the law of the universe, then it is safe to assume that this cycle must change too. When? Nobody knows for sure, as we realize that the cycle has changed only after it already did.

However, in my estimation, the catalyst for the change will be an increase of the short-term interest rates by the Federal Reserve, which sooner or later will have to happen given the high inflation.

Our real estate brokerage receives lots of inquiries from buyers and investors wanting to purchase properties. In our opinion, real estate buyers should proceed with extreme caution in such an over-heated real estate market.

The double-digit annual price appreciation is absolutely unsustainable as the real wage increases are in the low single-digits. It is important to understand that real estate is not a very liquid asset and there are substantial costs associated with selling it.

For most residential property owners, real estate should be a long-term game and buyers should take that under consideration when considering purchasing properties. When the inevitable market correction comes, home equity can be greatly reduced or even wiped out in case of highly-mortgaged homes.

In such instances, property owners can find themselves “upside down” on their mortgages, meaning they will owe more than the values of their properties. Short-sales and foreclosures will become familiar terms again.

On the other hand, the lucky residential property owners who currently own highly-appreciated real estate assets, maybe in a perfect position to cash out on their equity now when the market is hot and the prices are high (remember what W. Buffett said).

Residential home builders, especially those who build in the lower price ranges with projects that are already going, or about to go vertical and will deliver completed homes in the next 12 to 18 months, are in good shape because the current buyer demand far exceeds the supply.

However, past that time frame, it is anybody’s guess. Exorbitant prices of materials, high costs of land and labor, and onerous government fees make it hard for builders to deliver affordable houses and make a profit.

There could be another important consideration for selling sooner than later: Uncle Sam. The current administration openly talks about increasing taxes and in spite of their election promises, it is not going to be affecting only the “rich.”

For example, according to their latest tax proposals, the home-owner exemption from the capital gain taxes when selling primary residences, may be greatly reduced or even entirely eliminated. Oh, by the way, the capital gain tax rate is also going up.

Another significant tax change on the horizon for those who own any investment properties, even if it is a small rental house or condominium, is a proposal to reduce or eliminate the so called “1031 Tax Exchange” under which capital gain taxes can be deferred on investment properties, including small and large rentals.

Each situation is unique, but my general advice for Clients who want to buy real estate now is that there needs to be a compelling reason for them to do so. I recommend being patient and not buying into the frenzy, which sooner or later will pass.

Again, let us remember what W. Buffett says about buying low and selling high, and he certainly has a track record (and the bank account) to prove that he knows what he is talking about.

For Clients who own real estate and want to hold it for a long-term, I recommend that they review their mortgages and interest rates (if they have any loans on their properties).

If beneficial, they should look into refinancing them, with or without a cash-out, to take advantage of these extremely low interest rates, which at this point are way below the inflation rate, which makes them practically a “free money.”

For Clients who are considering selling or have shorter term ownership plans, this might be a great opportunity to review their properties’ values and determine if selling now, while the market is super-hot and the prices are super-high, is a good idea.

In conclusion, nobody knows what the future has in store, but a couple of things are certain: real estate is cyclical and change is inevitable. The current residential real estate market cycle is mature, prices are very high, and thus it is reasonable to expect a market shift.

Americans were shocked when a mob of 400 Brooklyn teenagers looted and ransacked a shopping mall. We shake our heads in disbelief when young men kill their classmates and knock down strangers on the street. The fact is… destructive behavior will continue, if we don’t understand what’s happening to children.

Neglecting children or controlling them with put downs, hitting, insults or threats can create fear, anger and resentment. When parents don’t pay attention to a child’s emotional needs, they are making life difficult for their child.

Parents involved in constant conflict, domestic violence and child abuse make life “a living hell.” Children are thrown off their emotional center and can become bullies or easy victims. They may seek relief through drugs, inflicting pain on others or themselves.

The single greatest threat to children’s future is the failure to teach them how to discover inner strength. If parents don’t listen and stop abusive behavior at home, youth can become socially isolated and have difficulty at school. (30% of teens drop out of high school.) Disconnected teens can shut down their conscience and engage in destructive behavior with little remorse or empathy for others.

Education is important. However, equally important is a child’s emotional development so he or she doesn’t bully or become a victim and isolated. When children grow self-aware, they develop healthy friendships and experience success in school. A loved child becomes a caring adult.

Lack of self-awareness is the biggest social problem Americans face today. Children need love, discipline and support from spiritually centered adults to prevent addictions, mental problems and/or violent behavior.

We can’t legislate values, character or morality. It is up to parents, teachers and the adult community to create safe homes, schools and neighborhoods so children become balanced and spiritually centered.

What is a spiritually centered child?

All humans are spiritual beings with powerful instincts, intuition and a conscience for self-protection. However, children need to see healthy role models to grow strong and resilient.

Every child is born with undiscovered gifts and talents. With support from family, extended family, friends, neighbors and teachers, youth can develop the 3 C’s: courage, character and conscience. “Courage” gives children the confidence to stand up for self, walk away from trouble and learn from mistakes. “Character” is the process of developing self-discipline, resiliency, honesty, patience and empathy. “Conscience” is the ability to control self, feel remorse, know right from wrong, handle anger calmly and forgive others.

These attributes help children reach their potential no matter what is happening around them. Trusting their instincts and intuition (inner spirit and wisdom) gives children the emotional tools to develop self-awareness in order to reject negative influences.

Eighty-four percent of Americans believe in a higher power. Children do not have to attend church or synagogue to be spiritually centered. However, religious groups that strengthen families provide healthy role models and mentors for children as they learn the power of self-discipline, reflection and how to modify their behavior. Religious organizations provide a supportive “family” of people who care about emotional (spiritual) development.

We can no longer remain silent as children struggle alone! We must speak up, support families and come together as concerned community members to protect children!

When Americans work together, we will see positive change. Spiritually centered children can handle bullies and other challenges if they have the love and support needed to keep them safe and healthy.

Ever since the dot com boom, the internet has transformed the way we live. Offering information literally at your fingertips, online banking an option, and enabling stay-at-home moms to earn income via telecommuting, the internet has provided endless possibilities for its users. Amongst the internet advances is the ability to shop online. Quick, effortless and easy, online shopping has given brick-and-mortar locations a run for there money.

Instant Gratification

Since we’re conditioned to want instant gratification in every aspect in our lives, we expect our purchases instantly, too. Instead of spending time traveling, looking for parking and finding the store you’d like to shop in before closing time, the internet is available at all times. You can shop at your convenience, any time, anywhere, no matter what.

Variety is the Spice of Life

Online shopping allows you to browse through endless possibilities, and even offers merchandise that’s unavailable in stores. If you’re searching for a niche product that may not be distributed locally, you’re sure to find what you’re looking for on the internet. What’s even more useful is the ability to compare items, similar or not, online. You can search through multiple stores at the same time, comparing material quality, sizes and pricing simultaneously.

Moreover, the internet compiles results from thousands of resources, so you’re guaranteed a larger selection that’s more likely to have what you’re looking for. Consider what you pay for a shirt found only at your local mall. By searching for the same or similar shirt online, you may be able to purchase the shirt directly from its manufacturer or from an outlet-type store. The in-stock online sellers often have additional sizes, so you never have to scramble to find the last item in your size.

A Hassle-Free Experience

Shopping via the internet eliminates the need to sift through a store’s products with potential buys like pants, shirts, belts and shoes all slung over one arm. Online shopping also eliminates the catchy, yet irritating music, as well as the hundreds, if not thousands, of other like-minded individuals who seem to have decided to shop on the same day.

Customer Service, Guaranteed

Say ‘goodbye’ to the days when you stood in line waiting, and waiting, and waiting some more for a store clerk to finally check out your items. Online shopping transactions occur instantly-saving you time to get your other errands done! Additionally, unlike a store, online shopping has friendly customer service representatives available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to assist you with locating, purchasing and shipping your merchandise.

Keeping Money in Your Pocket

Finding time to go shopping often requires cutting down in other areas of your life in order to get to the stores. And we all know that time equals money. With the rising costs of gas prices, it’s a no-brainer why online shopping is better. Not only do you have to pay for your items, you also have to pay to get there, twice. Your orders are shipped directly to your home or place for business, saving you time and money, without requiring you to leave your home.

In addition to saving gas money, online shops often offer great deals on shipping fees. Signing up for memberships may include frequent emails with special discounts. Though store locations near your home are ideal for trying on clothing, many online stores offer free or discounted return shipping. In fact, some stores even supply the return packaging, such as Victoria’s Secret and Zappos.com.

But perhaps the best perks of online shopping are the reduced prices. Why pay more from in-store locations when overstocked merchandise is available for less money? Search for reduced or discounted items. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, check out sites that offer auctions and free listings, such as eBay.com, Amazon.com, Craigslist.org, or even freecycle.com.

Solopreneurs and small business owners rise and fall on the marketplace perception of their brand, also known as one’s professional reputation. For that reason, the brand merits ongoing monitoring, enhancement and promotion as a component of strategies designed to support new business acquisition and encourage repeat business. The objective is to build and maintain a good client list. A useful way to review and evaluate your brand is with what many experts consider the gold standard of strategic planning, the SWOT Analysis.

SWOT is the acronym of Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats. Every 18 – 24 months, self-employed professionals will benefit from examining the viability of their brand, to better understand what actions enhance the brand and what might weaken it. Conduct a SWOT Analysis and use what you discover as the foundation of a strategic plan for your brand.

Strengths: expertise, competitive advantages, A-list clients, referral sources, strategic partnerships, educational or professional credentials, financial resources, influential relationships. They are internally generated and within your control. Potential actions include:

• Leveraging resources to upgrade the types of clients you work with
• Increasing sales or billable hours by a certain percentage
• Developing a strategy to obtain more repeat business
• Developing a strategy that would persuade clients to hire you for more lucrative projects

Weaknesses: whatever challenges your brand. Competitors, ineffective marketing, poor customer service, weak perceived value of your products and services. These are internal and within your control. Potential actions include:

• Determining which inadequacies have the most negative impact on revenues
• Identifying gaps that can be quickly or inexpensively remedied
• Understanding how to minimize liabilities—which business practices can you modify, professional credentials you can earn, relationships you can cultivate?

Opportunities: conditions that favor the attainment of goals. These are external and beyond your control, yet you may be able to retool and benefit from their presence. Good information about business conditions in your marketplace helps business owners to evaluate and envision the potential of short-term and long-term benefits and learn how to get the pay-off. Consider the following:

• What new developments can you leverage to bring money and prestige to your venture?
• Do you see ROI in offering new products or services?
• Are there good clients you might successfully sign or lapsed clients who, with outreach, could be willing to reactivate?
• Is there a niche market you can successfully enter?

Threats: conditions likely to damage your brand, or your ability to acquire clients and generate sufficient billable hours. These are external and beyond your control, yet you may be able to retool and escape or minimize the damage caused by their presence. This element requires your immediate attention, since it carries the potential to end, or seriously cripple, your brand and business.

Has an important contact left his/her organization, leaving you at the mercy of the new decision-maker, who has his/her own friends to hire? Or has there been a merger that resulted in the downgrading of the influence of your chief contact, who may lose the ability to green-light projects that you manage?

Has a well-connected and aggressive competitor appeared on the scene, ready to eat your market share and client list by way of a better known brand, more influential relationships, a bigger marketing budget, or other game-changing competitive advantages?

If your client contact has moved on, take that person to lunch or coffee and attempt to make the professional relationship portable. If your contact has lost influence in the new organization chart, take him/her out to coffee and get information about the replacement, who may hire you for the next project if it’s scheduled to start quickly.

If competition has intensified, do everything possible to offer superior customer service, assert your expertise, step up your networking, enhance your thought-leader credentials and nurture your client relationships.

Implementing a strategy of protective action, for example, a brand relaunch or a pivot into more hospitable business turf, might be necessary. Stay abreast of current and potential developments in the industries you serve. Communicate with clients and stay current as to the state of their priorities and concerns. Good relationships will give you the resources of time and information that will allow you to evaluate and regroup.

One of the most difficult tasks that traders have is determining the right amount of risk exposure when entering a trade. Since every trade should be accompanied by a protective stop-loss order, the question always comes down to “how much room should I allow the market to move against me before getting stopped out?”

Some traders rely on previous support and resistance levels as a place to put their stops. However, often these areas are gunned for because floor traders know that there are plenty of orders waiting there for the taking.

Some traders will draw lines below or above sloping trends and use that as a stop-loss reference, often expecting the market to continue with that pattern. But then, how many times do we see that pattern get violated right when we discover it is there?

Others will use some percentage value, either based on some fixed profit expectation or a percentage of available funds, to determine their initial stop-loss.

There are many different approaches to picking a stop-loss. My personal preference and what I believe to be the best approach most times is to use the expected and confirmed swing price.

What do I mean by ‘expected and confirmed’ swing price?

As of 2019, it has been 30 years that I have focused on the science and mathematics of market behavior. More specifically, forecasting market swings (aka turns) in advance. This approach requires a firm understanding of several methods of forecasting, including the popular and well-exposed techniques involving Fibonacci and Gann ratios, to name just two. There are so many more!

By learning and applying various market timing techniques that are designed to expose the underlying cyclic behavior of the markets, the trader can then use this information to ‘shorten the risk exposure’ of any given trade.

Here is how this works.

Suppose by way of using some proven method of determining high-probability market turns you arrive at the expectation that a swing bottom is highly likely to occur in the next day or two (at the very latest). Your method is usually 80% or better in accuracy, so you do not have to concern yourself with whether it will be on time (say tomorrow), or one day late (the following day).

The reason for this is that, since you already know with a high degree of certainty of the probability for the swing bottom, you simply place your ‘buy stop’ order for entry to go long just above the high price of the day you expect the swing to occur. If the order is triggered, you immediately place your stop-loss just below the low of that same bar because it just ‘confirmed’ as a swing bottom. Your initial risk exposure is the range of that swing bottom price bar. The probability that it will hold and not get you knocked out with a loss is very low because you knew with high-probability that the swing bottom was going to occur on that day to begin with.

Now suppose that the swing bottom is going to be one bar late as earlier stated as possible. In that case, your buy-stop was not triggered and you can do the same routine the next day for the one-day late bar. Same rules apply.

The real trick, once you are in your trade, will be on managing the trade and adjusting your stop-loss as your position moves deeper and deeper into profit territory. That is a whole different subject for a whole different article. But for the subject at hand, finding the right time and price to put on your initial stop-loss order where it is not too small or too large is not only also important, but it can save you a lot of money, keep you in more trades, and keep you out of trades you later are glad about.

So in order to have these advantages, to begin with, learn how to forecast market turns or find a reliable source for this information.

If you are planning a trip to Nakhon Ratchasima then it is worth noting that there are a number of good places where you can do some excellent shopping. Korat is not as large as Bangkok however it has an excellent mall and various areas with a high concentration of shops and stores.

The Mall

This is a large US style mall and is located in the center of town. There are more than a hundred different stores there as well as dozens of food and beverage outlets. The most famous ones include KFC, Pizza Hut, McDonalds, Sizzlers Steak House and Dunkin Donuts. The Mall is also home to a number of wonderful entertainment venues including a large and modern multi screen movie theatre, arcade area and a world class gym. Visitors will also find a wide range of banking facilities in the building.

Tesco Lotus

This massive British retail giant has locations in all major Thai cities and tourist destinations and one is also located close to the city center of Korat. There are also numerous smaller shops located in the complex as well as a number of different small restaurants and banks. Please note that there is both outdoor and indoor parking for both cars and motorbikes.

Big C

The most popular shopping venue is most certainly the Big C due to its overwhelming selection of products and its competitive pricing policy. Other than Big C you will also find a few dozen smaller stores as well as a KFC and an excellent food court. I would suggest for you to avoid visiting the local Big C during the weekend as it does get extremely busy and it could be hard finding a parking place and there will be big lines at the cashiers.

Klang Plaza 1 & 2

There are two different Klang Plaza’s which are generally known as the old and new Klang Plaza’s. They both however seem to offer the same type of products, brand names and both have a western style supermarket in the basement. The type of clothing that they offer tends to be well known western brand names and high quality local items.

IT Center

Thailand is well known for its low prices and outstanding assortment of IT products. If you would like to purchase a new mobile phone, a netbook or perhaps some of the latest software or DVD titles then do head over to the IT center which is a large mall filled with various computer retail stores and repair centers.

Shopping is shopping, right? Well, not necessarily. At one time, the only way to shop was to leave your home and visit a store. Nowadays, the Internet has revolutionized the way in which we spend money. But how does it add up compared to traditional shopping?

Well, we need to weigh them both to see how they compare to one another.

Traditional shopping

In traditional shopping, you simply take a ride in your car to your favorite shopping center or store and you buy what you want or need. You can pay with cash or credit card. In some instances you can pay with a check. You do get the opportunity to see the product before you purchase it and you can keep an eye on your credit card if you decide to pay with that method.

All of this seems rather great, doesn’t it? However, there are always cons to the pros when it comes to anything and everything.

The cons that you may run into when it comes to traditional shopping is that the store you are shopping at may not accept your payment method. There is also the fact that they may not have what you want. You may even find that the item they have is more expensive than what you want to pay. You may know that another store carries it, but they are out of it because they sell it at a cheaper price.

Yes, there are instances in which you must shop the traditional way. For example, you may need an item right now, which is true of grocery shopping. When you need milk or you need formula for the baby, you have to be able to go to the store and get those things immediately.

Online shopping

When it comes to online shopping, you don’t have to leave your home at all. You simply sit down at your computer, browse around the various online stores, and find what it is you need. However, there is usually only one way to pay. You can only pay via credit card. There are some websites that allow you to use your PayPal account or they will permit you to send them a check before they send you the item. The check method doesn’t work so well when you need the item right now.

As for the cons, you are not able to keep an eye on your credit card number like you can with an in-person transaction. You can, however, ensure that you are doing business with a secure site by looking in the address bar and seeing if there is an https:// present. You can also read website reviews to make sure a site is secure. You also do not get the opportunity to see the item right in front of you before you buy.

However, the advantages continue because, if you can’t find an item at one store, you can always find it at another. There really isn’t much that you can’t find on the Internet. You may not want to grocery shop online, but gifts, clothes, and many other items can be purchased and shipped right to your door. If you don’t like them when you get them, you can always ensure you’re doing business with a company with a good return policy.

So which seems better to you? Do you prefer the traditional way or the online way? It is a personal preference when it comes down to it. Really, all you need to do is shop the way you feel comfortable, but know that you are going to find some great deals online that you may not be able to offline.

There are two important research tools that can help an investor make money in stock trading. They are technical analysis and fundamental analysis.

The difference between a technical analyst and a fundamental analyst can be explained by an example of two shoppers. A technical analyst shopper visits a shopping mall, sits on a bench in the corridor and watches the people going into the stores. He checks how many people have bought the product that he too wishes to buy. He does not research the intrinsic value of the product itself.

Fundamental analysis, as the name suggests, studies the intrinsic value of a given product or stock. It is like you go to a shopping mall, visit each store, study the product that you want to buy and then decide whether or not to buy that product.

Technical analysis helps the investor to evaluate the stocks by analyzing the data created by the stock market transactions including the prices and volume of trade over a given period of time. It does not try to evaluate the basic value of a stock.

A technical analyst uses charts, diagrams, graphs and similar other tools to study the past price patterns and use them as a base to predict its future price movement.

It must be noted that both the methods of finding the genuine quality of the product are correct. In case of a technical analyst, if a large number of people are buying the same product, it’s quite possible the future value and the quality of the product is good.

On the other hand, as a fundamental analyst, you conduct your own research about the intrinsic quality of the product from various sources and decide its future value.

What if you could combine both the shopping methods of knowing the quality of the product? Would you not arrive at a more reliable assessment about the product’s quality?

It is the same in stock market.

But some people tend to specialize in one of these two tools. The result is that those who specialize, say, in technical analysis consider it to be more reliable research tool in stock trading. On the other hand, believers in fundamental analysis consider it more important than technical analysis.

It must, however, be noted that since technical analysis takes the market activity of a stock in a certain specific time span in the past into the consideration, therefore, its study generally tends to reveal the price movement of that stock in the near, almost immediate future.

Some people, therefore, consider that technical analysis has more advantages in a short term and day traders and fundamental analysis is more suitable for traders with long-term horizons.

Technical analysts believe that the historical performance of certain securities and markets can indicate their future performance. Obviously, for technical analysis, past market performance of a stock is a surer indicator of its future movement.

You might have read a statutory warning issued along with every IPO or mutual fund to the effect that past performance of a company, stock or a fund is no guarantee about its future performance.

The truth is that the past performance of a stock does affect its future performance to some extent. To that extent technical analysis which studies the past price movement of a stock does help to predict its future moves. It, however, does not take into account numerous other important and decisive factors that determine the future performance of the stock.

The other decisive factors are taken care of by the fundamental analysis and these include periodic financial reports-annual and quarterly reports–, balance sheets, auditors reports, income statements, cash flow statements, notes to the financial statements, discussions, expansion plans, total market capitalization, present orders, future projections and decisions taken in the meetings of the board of directors of the company.

Besides the reports of the stocks of the company you want to trade, you must also be aware of the latest newsflashes released from other sources. These newsflashes should be studied in context of the news and reports about the industry, the general economy of the state and the world at large.

As is clear from the above discussion, you should try to formulate a composite picture of your stock. You can obtain this clear picture only if you supplement one tool of analysis with the other.
