Hey Philo, thanks for all ur writings. I came across ur writings first when I saw ur piece about housing medallion. Captivated by your writings, I went through everything you wrote in the past several days. It is amazing to find you are also a fan of Matt Levine, Patrick Mackenzie, Byrne Hobart and Marc Rubinstein. It is not very often even in the finance community to even find people who are so passionate and curious about finance, economics and investing. If I may, I got two questions for you, firstly, regarding the recurring theme about housing market in the US, have you been able to compile data of housing price adjusted the changes in mortgage rate? Given both the zoning restriction and interest rate changes in the past several decades are probably drivers behind housing price in the US, it might be interesting to see how much they contribute to the elevation of the housing price respectively. Secondly, wanna know if you are a special situation inventor and were in the distressed debt space? (Just curious). Again thanks for all the fascinating writings!
