Exactly. When long bonds starts crashing, all that money will go into stocks, initially. As the crash of the long bond progresses, rates will get far too high and the perfect storm will commence. -g-

Well, actually, if you take this dollar stuff into account properly, then there was no bull market - stocks have been constantly dropping since year 2000. The DOW in gold dropped from a high of 43 in 2000 to the low of 9 on October, 10, a 79% drop, and that low was not exceeded in November (so far). It then stabilized in the 20-s and got nowhere for 2 years. The second wave of the bear really started when hilo Ben came. However, their price in dollars was rising until 2007 as stocks were dropping slower than the dollar. Once the dollar started rising, the mirage disappeared. <g>
