En lo que sí podemos estar de acuerdo es que, a la vista de que la vivienda en EEUU cuesta aproximadamente la mitad que en España (estamos hablando de chalets de nueva construcción a 159000 euros), lo que le queda por hundirse a los precios ibéricos es mucho más recorrido, sin duda. Motivo de más para guardar los ahorros en lugar seguro (yo personalmente los tengo en letras del tesoro, hace mucho tiempo que los retiré del banco).
