US mortgage rates are soaring, US home prices are soaring, The Fed’s balance sheet is still growing, and US average hourly earnings are growing at a fraction of home price growth.

The unafforable nature of US housing prices is similar to that of 2005-2007 when home price growth greatly exceeded wage growth.
