Foreclosure "good" news may not be so good after all

Updated

If you are like many folks, myself included, you may have been in your car and heard a brief news item earlier about how there was a decline in foreclosures reported in January. And, if you are like many folks, myself included, you may have said to yourself (if, that is, you are the kind of person who typically likes to say things to yourself) that this is surely good news; another sign that a weak economic recovery may be picking up steam?

But to paraphrase the ancient rock group The Who, please, please, don't get fooled again!
