I’d consider providing liquidity a negative. Doesn’t that prevent people from selling for lower values and help prop up housing prices?

- jedberg 5y agoIt's a negative for the local housing market, but it's a positive for the seller as well as a positive for the housing market the seller is moving to, because now they have cash to buy in the new market. Like I said, I think it's a net negative for society, but there are people who get value from it.
- loeg 5y agoIsn't liquidity good for buyers and sellers? They're essentially acting as a market maker, no?
