Yes, but who knows where the marching orders are coming from. The banks are still artificially propping up the prices so they do not get left holding a bunch of toxic assets. Theory 2, after the Fed devalues the dollar, they will be holding less in terms of value toxic assets, but of course, its all relative. They do not want to crash the damaged real estate market any more than it already is in an election year. No free market here.
