Japan is the best roadmap to study what we're doing. They jacked their debt:GDP up to 170 percent.....and stocks continued falling. Deficit spending won't work this time, but it will create numerous "false dawn" shorting opps.

>>I am becoming convinced that the Japanese experience really does provide an accurate template for what happens when the descent from bubbles is cushioned by stimulus. The markets seem to be telling us that very loudly.<<

japan was very different in that they had the rest of the world booming and they manufactured a lot of crap during their 2 lost decades.

this is a world wide deflationary collapse we are talking about - and that is *much worse* than anything japan had to face from 1989 to mid 2008.

nope, this will be much worse.
