Marketwatch's stories yesterday and today show it* vividly:
- "Home builders drowning in losses, subprime fallout"
- "S&P finally says subprime is mostly junk"
- "Retailers at the mercy of wary consumers"
- "Will subprime woes spill over to stocks?"
- "Gas prices rise amid refinery outages" (MSNBC)
*You all know the Roadrunner cartoons where Wile E. Coyote runs off the cliff, but only falls when he looks down and realizes there's nothing holding him up? That seems the case for the housing and stock markets now. The Dow rebounded some today; Wile is treading air a little longer.

Meanwhile, Santa Monica inventory is up another 5 just since Saturday, after lagging the last couple of months.
