'The difference this time is that emerging markets have grown to be half the world economy. Their aggregate debt levels have reached a record 175pc of GDP, up 30 percentage points since 2009. Most have already picked the low-hanging fruit of catch-up growth, and hit structural buffers. The US economy has shaken off its long malaise. It grew 3.9pc in the third quarter, an incipient boom. The latest confidence survey by the University of Michigan said expected wage gains "rose to their highest level since 2008". More spoke of job gains than "any other time in the last half century". Consumers are the most positive in "30 years." ' Time to get that housing/credit bubble and consumer spending into high gear again as memories of the last cycle fade with GWB posters on the wall.. Is all they can do with a paralyzed Congress and a highly leveraged world desperate for more growth.. Doubt we crash into recession here or in UK with the yield curve and oil prices at anywhere near current levels.
