Pending Home Sales Drop 16% - but it's getting better, right?

Buckle up, the next leg is coming! Pending home sales dropped 16% from Oct to Nov. Why, if the 1st time buyer credit was not only extended but expanded, did we see pending sales drop sooo much (economists were expecting a 2% drop?)

Is it possible that buyers are worried about their jobs?
Is it possible that buyers know prices will keep falling?
Is it possible that buyers know there exists a huge shadow inventory?
Is it possible that buyers can't get loans?
Is it possible that people in general are all (99%+) hurting more today than they were last week, last month, last year or at any time in the last decade?

Hmmm
