No Housing Bottom in Sight

Thanks to Barry Ritholtz I found this analysis from Vladimir Klyuev at the IMF,  What Goes Up Must Come Down? House Price Dynamics in the United States.

While I have been of the opinion we have a good ways to go, I think these charts are pretty telling. I don’t see anything here to make me suspect a bottom is anywhere close.
