ROCK OUT POST!!!
A lot of charts, a lot of work, and a lot of failed exponential trends.
But what does it mean?
Housing fell off a cliff from the burst bubble. Financial instruments have leveled off and/or declined. Is that because capital available for trading has leveled off?
But what does it mean? The peak of a Grand SuperCycle. It's all downhill from here.
But what does it mean?
Pension funds are going to have a very difficult time meeting their 8% return targets?
Speaking of trend failures...
Flashback to "Berserker"
A parabolic cannonball into a frozen pool under the assumption that the ice would break under your weight?
I think we know why it is called an ASSumption now, lol.
Better chance of the ice breaking than getting 8% returns.
TJandTheBear,
If only Bernanke would set the inflation rate at 8%. We might have a chance then, lol. Sigh.
