Realestate
Real Estate Is Rolling OverToday we are taking a look at the Case Shiller Home Index on a year-over-year chart as well as a price chart and using basic, long-term technicals to identify issues and opportunities. I believe we are heading into a recession over the next few years but we will have to see what crazy government program is created to fight that recession that maybe boosts housing back up. Don't forget in 2009 they were printing a ton of money and it didn't save the housing market. I believe home prices on a national level will fall between 25-30% by July 2025 and July 2026. This will depend on if we get UBI, a war, or major hikes in interest rates to fight inflation. Although, I don't believe the FED can hike rates too high because we can't afford the interest on the debt then due to the short-term rollovers.
Overall, I am bullish on cash flow real estate in growing areas with growing incomes that have freedom in mind. These areas are experiencing growth at a high rate but some of them are getting overheated. On a national level, I expect this all to play out over 3.5-5 years.

Canadain Real Estate $TTREI used the TTRE/CA05 to show the likely outcome of where we are vs where we are going. Likely a "bear" market for Canada in 2023. As much as there can be one. I would prefer to call it a buyers market more so than the usual sellers market Canucks are so used to. The chart clearly shows the two 5-year fixed-rate cycles roughly 2-3 years apart.

The Strange Parallels Between NFTs/Metaverse and Real-EstateThere's a strange similarity in the way people trade and talk about NFT/metaverse assets and real-estate assets -- they're both measured in terms of "projected wealth", not cash. Anyone who has tried to sell a house before knows that finding a buyer isn't an instantaneous transaction -- it takes some time and planning to find someone willing to pay for it.
Some people are arguing that despite cryptocurrency markets being down right now, the NFT market has largely remained untouched. Is this a bullish signal? Or is it just because we're in a holding pattern of people not wanting to lower their appraisals?
Some similarities and differences between digital and analog assets (i.e. real-estate):
Similarities:
- Both markets are "hot" right now, but a cool-down is likely to come soon (NFTs likely to follow the dip in the general crypto markets, real-estate likely to get hurt by interest rate hikes)
- The value of both NFTs and real-estate are largely "unrealized" until the actual sale
- Relies on appraisals and network effects (e.g. neighborhoods, communities) to determine its value
- Both assets are seen as a tool for building wealth/status
Differences:
- Real-estate has a better supply/demand dynamic (demand currently outpaces supply) but is largely concentrated in urban centers, which has been struggling to maintain its standards of quality and status in recent years (NFTs, on the other hand is an emerging status symbol with an uncertain trajectory)
- Real-estate has limited supply but is bound by physical locations, NFTs have an unlimited (but not infinite) supply but is ubiquitous
So What?
There is a competition going on right now between "analog" and "digital" assets, in the fight over which is deemed more "status worthy". Whether or not an NFT is seen as "cool" or an abomination largely depends on which circles you happen to be running with. Both markets are likely to shift very rapidly in 2022 so it's important to keep tabs on which way things are moving. (Real-estate is currently losing its ground as a status symbol, whereas NFTs are gaining.)
Crypto people sometimes joke that they're "NFT rich, cash poor", but there are plenty of homeowners out there right now who are drowning in mortgage and property tax payments that are in the same boat. A lot of the anti-crypto sentiments you see in public discourse seems to be originating from those demographics, currently. (It takes one to know one, after all.)

Mortgage Rates Back In An Uptrend Trend On 30 Year-Fixed Historically in America the interest rate for a 30 year fixed has been in a multi-decade down trend. As of January 2021 the rate for a 30 year fixed dropped to a historical low of around 2.65% and has since reversed in trend. This year we can potentially see rates continue to rise up to 3.75% as we're in secondary uptrend on the line chart. Currently we're at around 3.45% up 30% from 2.65% we seen last year.
Godrej Properties - Watchout key support levels 1855, 1758, 1596Godrej Properties had a major breakout on Sep 21 2021.

Next big support is at 200 DMA around 1758, if it breaks below that , we have strong support at 1596. This stock is in long term bull trend, long term investors can add in small positions at these support levels.
Inflation Hits 7% in the US -- Is this Good or Bad for Crypto?Inflation Hits 7% in the US -- Is this Good or Bad for Crypto?
It depends on how the Federal Reserve responds and how much faith people will have in the USD after the recession hits.
Also forgot to mention in the video that crypto is considered an "inflation friendly" asset because it's not beholden to supply chain issues like traditional assets are.
Virtual vs Real Estate (Inflation, Real-Estate, and Government)Gavin Newsom has been bragging about CA's $31B surplus this year but we know that the state has been struggling for a while now. A locked-down economy and people/jobs leaving the state will kind of do that. CA owes the Feds $21B in unemployment debt, btw.

Looking at the budget closer, you'll see that they gave educational institutions a modest increase (not enough to off set the damage COVID regulations they made them follow, of course) while most essential services are actually getting massive cuts.
www.ebudget.ca.gov
That 66% cut in environmental protections is pretty much a slap to the face to environmentalists everywhere. (Maybe that had something to do with why Newsom "disappeared" during the climate summit last year.😂) But Big Pharma and corporate tax cuts are doing great, at least.
If budgets could give the middle finger to taxpayers, this is probably as big as a flip as you could get. We had the chance to get rid of Newsom last year so guess he felt emboldened enough to double-down on the abuse. But it is what it is, I suppose. Kind of too late, now.
Note that despite Newsom's claims of economic recovery, we see a huge increase in labor dev funds, for reasons that should be pretty obvious by now. They know people are leaving and employers aren't hiring so something needs to be done but they can't be honest about it.
Big picture, is this really about COVID, California's labor market, or is it the beginning of the 4th Industrial Revolution, as Andrew Yang and the #YangGang forewarned? "Supply chain issues" may be masking the reality that a lot of those jobs aren't simply coming back, at all.
And it seems fitting that the day this comes out, we see Jerome Powell starting to look panicked about #inflation after a year of denying that it ever existed. Deer caught in the headlights, really. It's obvious that they really have no idea what they're doing at this point.
Either way, we have government loaning each other money with the Feds just printing more money to keep the states afloat on their unsustainable path. It's a house of cards ready to come crumbling down, and it's going to trickle down all the way to state and local budgets, too.
Lots of people probably thought I was crazy to double-down on #crypto during these times but the more I read about this stuff I feel better about the path I took. I often feel like an outsider to traditional financial institutions but maybe that's not a bad thing, after all.
There's going to be a lot of people who claim that the sky is falling but that happens at every downturn so take it with a grain of salt. But it's not all bad -- some sectors will do well so the best thing people can do is to stay focused on areas of growth. 📈
What are those areas? Crypto, #NFTs, software in general, and service sector industries that aren't beholden to supply chain issues and can adapt to new economic landscapes very quickly. The #metaverse will adjust to inflation much better than real-estate, for sure.
We're due for a market correction in the USD at any given moment, anyway. Long-term, it'll be a good thing, though, since all the FOMO in Wall Street and the government has created a monster that's out of control. A crash will fix a lot of that by removing the $$.
Either way, good luck, folks. Been saying a while that the next few years is going to be a roller-coaster so I hope people are prepared for anything to happen. The smarter ones have seen the writing on the wall and are planning accordingly already. 🧐
Upside Potential Outweighs DownsideSo, I nailed my last EXPI idea. Holy smokes, it went right to $27-28 and I loaded up. Now, which way does EXPI go? RE stocks will likely suck for a while longer but can EXPI really drop into the teens? That'd be borderline absurd. I think a $5B market cap is a fine resting place for EXPI for a while. I don't expect the price to drop much further...its down nearly 70% from its high. I think the price will linger around from the mid $20s to mid $30s until Spring. Then, I expect it to come back to life a little. I don't see EXPI hitting new highs in 2022 but my expectation is a rebound to at least the $40s.
Nominal vs "Real" Prices - Real vs Virtual Estate "Bubbles"Are we in a bubble? Probably. But which is really in a bubble right now? Crypto/NFTs/Metaverse assets, or the housing market in the "real" world?
What is "real", anyway? And is the listing prices you see in real-estate really accurate right now? A closer look at the real vs virtual-world asset races.

Virtual vs Real Estate - $MANA vs US/Chinese Real-EstateIt's always been a dream of mine to have a creative space where artists, intellectuals, entrepreneurs and activists could congregate and meet. High costs of living made this impossible but we might be able to do something similar in the #metaverse, which is the next best thing.
I've already seen some amazing stuff in Decentraland and Cryptovoxels despite it being very early. Very bullish on the direction the metaverse is going in right now. Once royalties and distribution of #NFTs get streamlined, there's no telling how big this thing could get.
IRL, artists have already been displaced many times due to NIMBYism and a society that just can't be bothered to give creatives the decency of basic infrastructure and services. #Crypto gives a low-cost option of selling their work in ways that Web2 failed to do.
So the goal of NFTs, Metaverse, and crypto-based creative projects should be to make as much cool things as possible, to draw attention away from traditional arts/entertainment venues and brick-n-mortar museums/galleries to shift demand towards these mediums over IRL ones.
Real-estate prices are way overinflated right now due to decades of NIMBYism, mismanagement and corruption in the appraisal process and is waiting to pop any day now. The metaverse may be just the thing needed to accelerate that pop. This is good for most people, as a whole.
Ignore the talking heads saying that a real-estate crash would hurt the poor. That type of trickle-down BS is what got us into our current situation to begin with and should be dismissed entirely. A deflated housing market will reduce rents and homelessness - it's just math.
So in a way, the metaverse IS the market correction in the IRL real-estate market that we've been waiting for. Induced demand goes digital, countering the artificial scarcity of NIMBY practices in the real world, and will reach a new equilibrium of sorts after a few years.
After that, it's anyone's game. But we get interesting content in the digital world while reducing rents IRL at the same time. A win-win. But my money is on $MANA, $ETH, and NFTs since they're small in size by comparison and has a lot of room to grow. That's how money is made.
If you need proof, this chart showing MANA doing inversely well against the US and Chinese real-estate market right now. The US markets are printing a lot of money to keep their prices artificially high, but as inflation rises it's going to reach a point where growth will no longer be possible. And so far it's pointing in the direction that crash could result in crypto assets experiencing exponential growth as a result.
Near-Term Pain turns to Long-Term GainI think EXPI is done for the year! I image a lot of holders will sell some of their position to offset 2021 gains. I was bullish on EXPI up until recently and thought that some of the indicators would flip but there's too much negative sentiment in macro and RE specifically. I think EXPI will dip into the $20s and rebound from there. EXP is a promising company and is poaching high-performing RE talent from other brands. The company is expanding domestically and internationally and also moving into adjacent services which bode well for top-line growth.
MANA Bullish move broke its ATH and on the way to $10Hi fellows! MANA has made it and surpassed its past ATH 4.99. The MANA top 100 holders did not make any pump or move yet. This indicates a strong market incentive for the MANA. At the same time, SAND also got pumped (with the involvement of top 100 holders of SAND) meaning the market for NFT and metaverse is very BULLISH right now!
Happy Thanks Giving and enjoy your holiday!

I am very Bullish on MANA right now and I will explain whyI am very bullish on MANA right now as I am a fundamental analysist with analyzing both team, cash flow, cash distribution, and another part of the project before investing in anything. MANA is different than SAND boy with a recent boost. If you have some time to go to coinmarketcap and check the holder of MANA and SAND, you will realize top 100 holders of MANA only hold 78% MANA token (these holders include the Dev team, and I think they are the top 2 wallets with ~185mil MANA) compared to 96% SAND token. Remember, MANA has 1.8 Bil MANA tokens currently circulating with a Total of 2.1 Bil MANA tokens available (That is right, roughly 300-400 mill MANA are held by the MANA's Dev team). This is very decentralized! Compared to SAND with 800Mil token in circulation and the Dev team hold 2.2 Bil Token of SAND.
You can also make a note of the MANA's price jump price from Nov 11 till Nov 15, and check the holder portfolio during this time. It shows the top 100 holders of MANA actually buy back MANA during that time to make the price jump from $2.5 to $3.6 and sell out the same MANA to make the price drop down to 2.9 during these 5 days. What happened is that people kept buying in and holding it for long rather than shortening on MANA. This is the very important key point here, the new MANA's holders majorly have an investor mentality for the long term. Since that buyback and sale from the top 100 MANA holder, the MANA price has been very stable growing up until now. The whole goal of MANA is not to make you a rich FOMO boy, but to distribute tokens to make it become more decentralized, and currently, it is the most decentralized metaverse out there with the lowest token percentage for top 100 holders. If you do the same analysis for SAND you will realize the top 100 holders in SAND and others have a very different strategy and they tend to have a longer time frame to accumulate and sell off the token. After we saw the price jump on Nov11-15, we can see how capable the MANA top 100 holders can do, however, the main point is MANA needs to be at a low price to attract more people to it. The one that is going to attract more is the real estate management companies. Within 24 hours, there was a Canadian real estate company purchased $2.5 Mil worth of land on Decentraland right on the fashion district. The article is following (you can google search it):
-----------------------------------------------------------
"On Tuesday, a Canadian investment firm that focuses on decentralized finance (DeFi) called Tokens.com purchased nearly $2.5 million worth of virtual land in the platform Decentraland.
Specifically, Tokens.com purchased 116 parcels of virtual land for a total of 618,000 MANA, the native currency of Decentraland, according to a company release. The company claimed the purchase represented the largest transaction of its kind to date.
Tokens.com purchased the land through the virtual real estate firm Metaverse Group, which offers virtual land development services for clients. The purchase is equivalent to 6,090 square feet of physical land — which is approximately the size of 1.3 basketball courts.
In mid-October, Tokens.com purchased a 50% stake in Metaverse Group for $1.68 million. Metaverse Group also sells and rents virtual land in the virtual world platforms Cryptovoxels, The Sandbox, Upland and Somnium.
The purchased lots are based in Decentraland’s Fashion Street district and will be developed to accommodate the growing demand for fashion brands to showcase digital merchandise in the metaverse.
“Fashion is the next massive area for growth in the metaverse,” said Sam Hamilton, Head of Content at the Decentraland Foundation, in a statement. “So it’s timely, and very exciting, that Metaverse Group has made such a decisive commitment with this land purchase in the heart of Decentraland’s fashion precinct.”
Digital land is valued by the foot traffic it receives and its proximity to brands located within the metaverse, as The Block previously reported. "
-----------------------------------------------------------
As you have read it throughout, accumulating MANA is actually turning out to be a good long-term investment because the real world is coming to know about MANA right now. MANA tokens will be needed for services and it is a great example of lithium/petrol in the metaverse world.
Now coming back to the chart, the running price from $2.9 up until now $4 are made by major people of the community rather than the top 100 holders. It does not mean they don't think MANA is not potential, it just means they create room for accumulation before making moves. My chart has been able to predict correctly the move in the past 72 hours, so that is a good sign of my good sense lol! If MANA would be able to break the support line and run straight to $2.9 then it would be my dream as I am hoping it to drop down every day in the past 15 days.
