"But the predictions a year or so ago were for people not to buy cars and for home prices to continue to tumble. As to the economy we had people like Nouriel Roubini talking about a multi-year nuclear winter." Perma bears are sometimes right so they get a lot of press just like Brinker got a lot of press when he raised cash in early 2000 only to ruin his good call by telling people to buy the NASDAQ QQQ in the $80s a few months later... then missing the biggest bear market since the great depression with a gift horse buy near the very top. The key to me seems to be trusting nobody and figure who benefits from the large volatility and then try to profit from it as well. "Many governments including the US have high debts and deficits and monetary and fiscal stimulus are going to be slowly withdrawn. So trend growth will probably be a bit lower going forward then it otherwise would have been." Perhaps you don't live in California or Greece otherwise you would see how ridiculous that sounds. 8) Check this out mercurynews.com many friends still in engineering say they wasted money on college education and long hours of engineering career... should have been public servants... How about getting $200K a year to watch porn while Madoff rips folks off you are supposed to protect? Here in Kalifornia, we are ALREADY relying on the US taxpayers just like Greece relies on the EU to pay the salaries and early (often double) pensions to our public servants while we run HUGE deficits to pay even more... The only one left to bail out the US is the printing press... and that is running full speed.
