Market watchers are increasingly concerned about recent weakness in the financial sector.

In a related development, technical analyst J.C. Parets of All-Star Charts has expressed concern about a potential topping pattern in JPMorgan while blogger ChessNWine identified a bearish pattern in Goldman Sachs “with potentially devastating ramifications to financials.”

“The party is over” for refinancing activity while a weak job market and flat consumer incomes are preventing a pickup in purchase activity, Whalen says. “Structural reasons, apart from rates [mean] you’re going to see a real tail-off in demand” for mortgages.

Those following the Real Estate market should be very concerned with the data coming out. It is showing that the top is very near or has already been set. If you actively participate in the real estate market this is an important issue to watch.  Let’s look at some bullet points.

  • Refinancing is down substantially.
  • Banks are shutting down/moving their mortgage operations and firing tens of thousands of people. They expect a substantially lower volume going forward.
  • Interest rates are much higher from a year ago and are likely to rise further.  
  • Rapid speculation in various markets. Las Vegas and So.Cal.
  • Banks are lowering their earnings due to much lower volumes.
  • Bearish technical patters are starting to develop in real estate and financial stocks.
  • Both the US Economy and the stock market are facing severe declines.

These are just a few, but it gives us enough information to paint a clear picture. Real estate is toast. The rebound that we have experienced over the last 2-3 years is now over (or nearly over).  While various local markets might top at different times, the overall real estate market is topping right now and should start its decline shortly.

Therefore, I feel confident enough to call for a real estate market top right here and now.  I am going on the record here. Even if I am a few months early I believe it is a good call.
