what are peoples views on this today, bullish or bearish?
Very Bullish.
I was under the impression that the global economy peaked in 4Q03, however, by looking at China's recent Q104 performance - which has the exact same monetary policy as the US - today's GDP number will be at the upper end of the 5-6% range.

ok, all of those that keep proclaiming that the housing market will collapse with a small rate increase are stupid shits. Rates will need to triple or quadruple before there is any real widespread effect on the housing market. 2% is just as low as 1% in comparison to the past 50 years.
i did not say the house market is going to collapse. but the asset valuations will change once there's alot more supply than demand. "collapse" is a label used by the media to sell their stories. do you really think interest rate is going to remain low forever? interest rate was at about 6% at jan 2001. im not going to be surpised its going to be at that level within 2-3 years. that's when you will really see the effects of supply/demand.
yes, even 2% is very low, but the bankruptcy rate had reach an all time high at 1%. last report that the personal disposable income has not gone up. with march CPI raise of 0.5%(6% ann), its not looking very bright out there. what kind of dumb dumb would lend you money at this low level when the inflation is at 6%?
all you need to do is to open your eyes.
