Um, I haven't for the past month or so. That's the whole point of this thread in case you forgot... Apex was wondering why I'm not still posting, so I log in just to explain why I'm not still posting and then you ask me why I'm still posting. Thanks for demonstrating once again how dumb the current crop of bears are.
Another example of what we've been saying about the low intellect of the current crop of bears. Sydney prices are soaring, up more than 50% since I bought and still rising fast, yet here is a bear who is convinced that I must be 'gripped with panic' and that 'things must be really bad in property world'. It's totally illogical. At least the old bears on GHPC could string together something vaguely logical to attack the bulls with. But to insist I must be panicking while house prices are booming is just plain dumb. If you're going to insult me, at least try do it in a way that doesn't make yourself look like a fool. And as for Ted/MMMs gibberish post... there's really nothing in there worth responding to at all. The bears have nothing. It's over.
You are the one making the childish jeers about having 'won' a competition that I've never been interested in participating in.

Except I have read posts that say the same thing from you numerous times:
Bulls Rool! Bears Lose.
And yet, here you are, chest beating away.
Surely, you should be lining up finance for some more property investment? After all, you have proved that property investment is a virtually fail safe path to riches and that any perceived macroeconomic threats are merely the delusion of silly bears.
Property acquisition as a topic was almost a national obsession. You couldn't even call it speculation as the buyers all presumed the price of property could only go up. That’s why we use the word obsession. Ordinary people were buying properties for their young children who had not even left school assuming they would not be able to afford property of their own when they left college- Klaus Regling on Ireland. Sound familiar?
The evidence of nearly 40 cycles in house prices for 17 OECD economies since 1970 shows that real house prices typically give up about 70 per cent of their rise in the subsequent fall, and that these falls occur slowly. Morgan Kelly:On the Likely Extent of Falls in Irish House Prices, 2007
In response to a childish thread full of bears having an unprovoked dig at himself and the other bulls!!!
So is this "shadow posting or some bully smitten follower that posted this?
Tooo funny.
I'm off to lunch See ya.
Newjerk? can you try harder than dig up another person's blog. My first promo was with Billabong and my name in English is modified with a T, am Perth born but also lived in Sydney to make my $$ It's Absolutely Fabulous if it includes brilliant locations, & high calibre tenants..what more does one want? Understand the power of the two "P"" or be financially challenged Even better when there is family who are property mad and one is born in some entitlements.....Understand that beautiful women are the exhibitionists we crave attention, whilst hot blooded men are the voyeurs ... A stunning woman can command and takes pleasure in being noticed. Seems not too many understand what it means to hold and own props and get threatened by those who do. Banks are considered to be law abiding and & rather boring places yeah not true . A bank balance sheet will show capital is dwarfed by their liabilities this means when a portions of loans is falling its problems for the bank.
I do agree with what you state...but that, hell, I've read even that you & shadow are one, now that's a load of BS... Oh you both have your own investing geographics quite well....
Shadows slimy with its approaches in debating, & avoids answering certain types of qns. It's very careful this thing.. Except it's revealed that it has kiddies...so it's a parent..oh no there's going to be robot shadows growing up.
A few theories out there ..that gets me agreeing..
. Shadows in the closet...( Come in the light coz when you hide in that shadow you better panic when you can't see the shadow anymore ) it's gay. .its a She .its a paid analyst elsewhere in the real world. ."Alex & Shadow are in it together
Anyway it's all quite boring really, but it does make me wonder what could make sense.
Also, one should not knock those who don't wish to spend their life on the Internet debating with graphs , it dosent necessarily mean some are not intelligent & have nothing to offer on the forum.
Veritas You are really better off with, sorting your personal financial crap out, than looking in the Internet to see what latest comment, chart has been posted .
You're like a sprinkler. You abuse everyone with in site.
As mentioned by Shadow, it has become very boring.
There is really nothing left to debate and all the old school bears such as earthsta and raveswei have long since departed. The only bears left have absolute no clue. They should really be required to read the last 4 years of posts on the forum before they are allowed to add anything themselves as it's all been said before (and usually much more articulately).
What makes me laugh is people like you that label yourselves 'bulls', define every 'bear' on here as the dribbling lunatic with a cupboard full of gold and a tin foil hat waiting for the big crash that brings down western governments and their fiat money system. Your main motive here is similar to that of the school bully - you're generally insecure and like picking on someone weaker or stupider than you to make yourself feel better.
What's even more funny is that you treat the whole thing as a competition, as if the sole point of this forum is to announce a prediction for the direction of future asset price / yield movements, and then claim personal victory if it turns out right. Again this points to childish and infantile behavior, especially considering a) probability gives you a 50% chance of predicting a direction call successfully anyway, and b) it's an anonymous forum, so nobody really knows or cares if you're a budding property tycoon or a pulp fiction style gimp in the basement. Hence the reason why I mock you with threads that announce an 'all out bull assault', and make claims for crashes at specific points in time in the future. I mean, who cares, right? If I get it wrong like Timmy with his iron ore call, I can just leave the forum, or set up a sock. What's the fucking point of all this?
Personally I come here to argue with reasonably intelligent people who hold differing views to mine, because it's one way I've found to become more enlightened about complex subjects like economics.
You can take your pointless little 'nyer nyer' geegee bets and straw man insults and jam them up your clacker for all I care.

Have you considered why you get abused?
Have you considered why you haven't yet put this total waste of space harridan on ignore?

The bulls and bears debate is a good craic but at the end of the day this site is about Australian property. This implies to me it is about those that are interested in buying, investing, holding, renovating and selling property. Its not as if you get a site called Australian Cars Forum and get some posters that argue why we should abandon cars and return to horses and carriages but we do for some strange reason in property, not just on this forum but many others that I have frequented. At the end of the day, it is what is is and yes this place is mostly bull and bear blues as opposed to investing in property discussions.
From my perspective a person should have the conviction to stick to their guns on whether they buy houses or not, this position would hardly be changed by some anonymous nutters on t'internet saying different. Under our system of enclosed land, land values must increase in value, I know that.
I must admit I do enjoy the one eyed bears impassioned attempts to argue otherwise though. Strange creatures that they are.

It is you that appears the sad fool.
Please make the case for a crash. Explain why you think it will happen. Back up your predictions with some analysis. Come on, you can do better than your recent posts.

What are you waiting for? Fill your boots.
Come on, Veritas. There was a time when you used to give a real contest. Nowadays you only seem interested in petty point-scoring and silly one-upmanship. Please make the case for a crash with some relevant analysis.
Australian Property Forum is an economics and finance forum dedicated to discussion of Australian and global real estate markets and macroeconomics, including house prices, housing affordability, and the likelihood of a property crash. Is there an Australian housing bubble? Will house prices crash, boom or stagnate? Is the Australian property market a pyramid scheme or Ponzi scheme? Can house prices really rise forever? These are the questions we address on Australian Property Forum, the premier real estate site for property bears, bulls, investors, and speculators. Members may also discuss matters related to finance, modern monetary theory (MMT), debt deflation, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Ethereum and Ripple, property investing, landlords, tenants, debt consolidation, reverse home equity loans, the housing shortage, negative gearing, capital gains tax, land tax and macro prudential regulation.
