Exactly right, with WS being the house. I'm just taking guesses now, like everyone else. Fundamental analysis on companies is dead. It's all just a casino now.

Looking for the middle end of the curve 5 to 10 year flattening by next summer if current trends continue might be the first signal of impending disaster looking out another year or more from that point... I guess Yellin and friends figure keep ZIRP going is good enough to keep the banks making tons of money, keep the top 10% busy buying stuff, keep stock market averages lofty stuff plus support the overinflated high end RE markets with cheap HELOCS and other alternative shorter term instruments the well heeled have at their disposal. Guess we shall see but shortening the time line on the RE cycle from the normal 17-18 years to say 10 years to the next blowoff top could create another perfect storm globally as early as 2016 all IMHO.. What freaks me out most is the stuff they don't talk about.... besides this slow steady creep up in gas prices is so many RE markets globally are now above the prior peak..
