Finally a deserving break from markets that were whippy last week! The weekend was great! Beautiful weather and lots of time outdoors. Actually spent this weekend playing tennis, eating, sleeping! Rinse/Repeat. Perfect actually.
Not everyone was so fortunate. If you are a New Yorker shopping for an apartments, things could have been pretty stressful. Hearing of packed open houses and bidding wars again. Painful if you are buying!
Priced out of New York, maybe check out Newark? Saying this half in jest (but only half) as the city is making great strides under the leadership of Cory Booker. A Rhodes scholar with degrees from Yale, Stanford and Oxford, his service-dedicated leadership has been well-publicized. As if that's not enough, he ran into a burning building this weekend to save his trapped neighbors. Indeed some critics can be a bit cynical about 'Be Good Booker' as publicity politics. However, it is under his leadership, that Newark has transformed into one of the fastest growing cities in America and cut crime dramatically. That, to me, is nothing to be cynical about.
