You made a good point in mentioning a possible parallel with the Japanese stock market.

The big danger, IMHO, is not a hard landing nor a soft one - but no landing at all! After 11 years Japan is still in a holding pattern like a modern day 'Flying Dutchman'- stuck in the miasma of deflation after its asset bubble burst in 1990.

Deflation is really scary. 1929 was catastrophic but what was worse was the 10 years of deflation that followed it. The only investment that made sense was coupon clipping government bonds.
