From the current issue of The Economist <<A crash in share prices would make a serious if temporary dent in America’s economy, even though the underlying economic benefits of IT would continue. Stockmarkets in many other economies are overvalued too, but a bursting of the bubble would claim many more victims in America than in Japan or Europe, partly because far more people own shares and partly because in recent years American households and companies have borrowed huge sums in the expectation that share prices will continue to climb. Sooner or later they are likely to discover their mistake.>> economist.com
