I think the belief in historical cycles is an artifact of the drive to make the study of mankind into a hard science. To make it work you have to use the Procrustian method - cut off the bits that don't fit.

The better information a business has about future demand for its products, the less likely it is to build up excess capacity or excess inventory. Further, the better a cushion of cash reserves a business has, the better able it is to weather out periods of slack demand.

Speculative bubbles are caused by bad information and buying on margin.
