Soros did come out earlier this year to warn of another 2008 crisis which didn’t happen and stocks kept surging higher.

Stocks haven’t exceeded 2015 highs. Brexit (if and when) should be entertaining to watch.

I don’t think that banks are holding back foreclosures. Most banks are national in 2016, and they’re certainly not holding back foreclosures in the Northeast.

I think what’s happened is that speculators have bid prices above 2006 levels in many cases, so foreclosures can be sold without deficiency. For now at least.
