I spoke to a friend of mine the other day who works for a health care venture capital firm, and I thought I?d pass through a few tidbits.

5%. A lousy 5%. That?s all we managed to clock in the latest correction in the greatest bull market of all time. It?s not the 6% hickey we had to endure in February, nor as modest as the 4% setback in August. Call it a middling type correction, a kind of correction light. The buyers

A number of analysts, and even some of those in the real estate industry, thought that there would never be a recovery in residential real estate. Long time readers of this letter know too well that I went hugely negative on the sector in late 2005, when I unloaded all of my holdings. However, I
