Interesting, aside from a few areas I shy away from (bonds, utilities), the message he put forth is almost exactly what I've been thinking for the last 4 months. However, I'm probably more bullish over a longer term than he is.

What I found particularly compelling was his Real Estate assessment. Dead on to what I've been saying on various threads here...but I follow that market pretty closely.

The question of servicing debt is the primary linchpin to the overall future of the economy. But I'm optimistic about that. Oddly, while I spent 3 months without a job, I was actually able to SAVE money while the wife worked part time, I collected unemployment, and we cut back expenses.
Now that I'm working (at a nice pay increase) again, we've not ratcheted up expenses considerably, and I've made it my primary goal to reduce debt (hers is to get a new house, which I'm willing to do but only after this interest rate cycle plays itself out...).
