<<... the deleveraging process has reduced returns in all asset classes. A very valid argument was advanced today that in a world where you get 2 to 3 % GDP growth under optimal conditions the past 5 plus years and you have Jeremy Siegel talking about long term US equity returns being 6.6%....... the Institutional investors are creating a type of Ponzi scheme, as we can not expect Equities to generate returns at more than 2 to 3 times GDP....>>

I personally would add that to make things worse the "2 to 3% GDP growth under optimal conditions" is actually not growth at all but inflation.
