calculating national factors as of May, 2016

calculating national factors as of May, 2016

Hello everyone,

I've gone through chapter 3 of dean's profit from real estate now. I have come up with the following factors.
1). Interest rates-have been at steadily declining since 2013. i'm calculating that we are in a rising or peak market for IR.
2). Inflation data-have been steadily declining(I saw a large decline in 2015), but have calculated n/a.
3). flow of investment funds-the stock market has been steadily increasing over the last few years. I have rated this as n/a.
4). Business cycle-i'm seeing in the news recently that GDP growth in the first Qtr of 2016 is .5%. i'm calculating a downward trend.
5). Cataclysmic events-N/A.

Just wanted to see if anyone else has recently gone through this recent exercise and what they came up with.

Thanks!

HI, I read in his book, page

HI, I read in his book, page 32: "If interest rates just started going up after a 5 year low, that could be an of a peak market." My research is that they have been the lowest in 3 years. They haven't started to rise yet, but if they do, we could be at a peak situation. haven't calculated my local factors yet. Thanks for your comment

Not the "Great Recession"

We are not in a typical scenario of historic recessions. As Koo states, it was the popping of a giant credit bubble. Thus, fed policy has not been normal. http://www.valuewalk.com/2016/04/qe-withdrawal-drugs/
