STOCK MARKET
THE MARKET Wall Street has regained some ground since the December 2015 - January 2016 after posting a -1.34 Trillion Dollar Crash. From a low February 1, 2016, the market bowed downward into January's levels and ended up down -129.43 on February 29, 2016 in lack luster trading.
GOVERNMENT The Federal Reserve Board isn't sure that the current Market Crash, worse than 2009 and similar Depressionary Inflation figures to 2009 is going to effect the economy.
STOCK MARKET In September 2015 Wall Street indicated that investors could expect a 7.0% annual gain for 2016. Currently they are at a 3 Month -7.20% a Year To Date - 5.21% and for the last 1 Year -8.91% Yield or Rate Of Return on the investment.
A FUTURE FINANCIAL OUTLOOK Wall Street is no place to play today unless you have money to loose. There is no economic security with the investment.

REAL ESTATE FUTURES The Real Estate Retail Purchase market will ease with interest rates rising. This is because fewer Home owners qualify for the additional financing needed to move up.

INTEREST RATES
Speculation: Interest Rates are not being driven by the US economy. In 2008 Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were put in conservatorship by the US Government.
The bailout for the two mortgage lending giants was under 1 Trillion Dollars in 2009. Since then, the Mortgage Banks could have been released from the conservatorship, but have not.
Mortage rates today are fluating still at the lower levels only because they are under US government control not because of the US economy.
The new Democratic Appointee Chairman Janet Yellen has expressed, she does not think that the Prime Interest Rate will go down.
