However, some elements, like capital and consumer sentiment are global, and or national, so my predictions look at not only local (supply/demand) issues, but also national politics and global money flows.  

The current measures and sentiments in the US are not serious at all compared to what the measurement China or Korea are taking.

I, as I'm sure many here, share that sentiment.

Circumstances arise that may affect that (job change for example) but if the intention is to deceive and profit that falls clearly in the wrong and there are many BP forum responses from attorneys that echo that sentiment.  

My sentiments exactly.

@Jeffrey EvansI second your sentiments.

I agree with the general sentiment here that no one knows.

I agree with @Travis Timmons sentiment - check out and feel the vibe of the city.

Market sentiment is the main driver from what I see and hear. 

Mike - Coming from a 1-STR-so-far total newb I second your sentiment.
