Seems really drawn out. Can't imagine DOW doubling in the next 5 years. We KNOW that the world was changing completely due to computerization at that time. What will drive such a change now. EDIT: Having said that, what a market!!!

IMO the debt, at least for the US, still remains far and and away a 'round to it type of problem and one that with the right combination of inflation, tax increases, spending cuts and moderate growth remains fixable with less than draconian measures. When you think about it, it's a tribute to our economy given the dollar amount it occupies. Many countries in Europe and maybe Japan aren't so fortunate. So what is headlines for them is still maybe page 6 stuff for us. I think your stat re. the short term 6%+ advance is pretty impressive. I wouldn't bet against it.
