Couldn't believe the anti-investor bias in this article. Enjoy.

Articles are often slanted in a way that shows the author's bias.

It does illustrate what's happening though - turning from speculative flipping to a safer, long-term buy and hold strategy.

As for Glenn Plantone, I know him well. He's been complaining about the lack of REO inventory for some time now.
