    "Talk of the housing bubble has hit levels not seen since 2003, when house price growth was running at more than 15 per cent a year in the heady days before the GFC.

    That’s according to a new index compiled by CommSec, which tracks mentions of the phrase “housing bubble” in articles in Australian newspapers, wire services and ABC radio transcripts, using the Dow Jones Factiva service.

    The index, which tracks data starting from January 2003, hits a peak in the September of that year when there were 201 mentions of the housing bubble."
