What does 2022 have in common with 1969? Similar low jobless claim numbers, in some really good news for a recovering pandemic economy. Interest rates could be going up more than we thought, so what should you expect from the Federal Reserve? There's some interesting information about the housing market -- impending home sales fell a few percentage points. What does this tell us about the health of home buying?
