I had a client the other night ask me when I thought home prices would recover. I follow a lot of indices so I thought I’d share some of those with you.

The Matchmaker Index says the opposite. As the old adage goes, misery loves company. Match.com says that business is up as individuals seek soul mates to commiserate with as the economy goes down. Maybe our market is worse than we think.
The MUI, oh you didn’t recognize the acronym, it’s the Men’s Underwear Index. Sales of men’s underwear typically are stable because they rank as a necessity. But during times of severe financial strain, men will try to stretch the time between buying new pairs, causing underwear sales to dip (and I suppose to sag). Sales starting dipping this year.
