Not yet anyway. They could get worse than back then since the credit bubble was much bigger with a mountain of derivatives on top. The mountain is still present, it has not detonated, it was put on life support by QE. The next logical stage of this collapse is the failure of the Fed. But the Fed can't fail? Yes, we can. In fact, that failure is already present. The two alternatives are: 1. The bubble will get ever bigger, resulting in hyperinflation 2. It will collapse through bankruptcy of the country, Argentina way. Given that (2) seems to be now always countered by QE, (1) is the only remaining option. I'd give (2) some chance too. (1) will seem like recovery at first. Then all prices will go ballistic.
