The earnest industry reporters at HotPads Daily have to tell it like we see it, which over the past few months has meant reporting a lot of bad news. From falling home equity to rising foreclosures, the picture painted has not been pretty.
But today we have plethora of positive posts from all corners of the economy. Freddie Mac is injecting $15 billion into the credit market by buying mega mortgages from Wells Fargo, JPMorgan Chase and Washington Mutual. Shares of Google rose 17% yesterday with data on strong advertising profits, good news for all websites offering online marketing. And investors are even flocking back to i-banks with Merrill Lynch on the rise.
So instead of our usual Friday happy hour, we're calling for an entire Happy Day. (But still with a happy hour at the end.)
I like it, "Happy Day"......(But still with a happy hour at the end.)
I think this is a concept that could catch on today, especially with it being 80 degrees and sunny in Washington, DC.
If only the Capitals could have beaten the Flyers in 2OT then it TRUELY would be a "Happy Day".
Keep up the good work. I've received a number of inquiries about weekly rentals at my (Outer Banks) Duck,NC summer beach house (www.duckhouse.notlong.com)thanks to HotPads.com.
