A third figure – I added trendlines to the 2 sets of data for short sales. For total short listings, I excluded the data from 2006. It still shows that in the past few weeks, the numbers have increased. The numbers for percent change are still all over the place. I added the trendline, and it is nominally increasing, but the fit is not significant statistically. If anything, in the past few weeks we have seen an interesting increase in variability (not counting the two weeks with negative changes).
