Woof. I am in the business, and I will concede that summer is indeed slow while school is out of session. That being the case, you would think prices would go down rather than up, wouldn't you?

I said extended economic downturn, and base that on extensive market research. In addition to my music career, I am an institutional investment consultant. The economy has been in the toilet since things started to come unraveled in the tech sector in 1999. 2003 was a bit of a phantom recovery since most of the rallying took place in speculative companies. What recovery has taken place has been somewhat jobless -- a lot of the new job creation is replacing high-wage jobs being outsourced to Asia with low-paying service-sector jobs. Meanwhile, the Fed is keeping rates at historic lows to keep the economy from going into a complete stall. Buyer confidence has been buoyed by tax cuts, and consumer sentiment has remained curiously strong even with the evironment such as it is. I read the WSJ -- in fact I deal with the people who WRITE the WSJ.
