I seem to remember Olly Newland publishing a book circa 2004 saying how he had sold all his Auckland residential property as it was going to crash ......"the day the bubble bursts"
How much if at all did Auck property come off over the GFC ?
I suppose what I am trying to say is "the market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent " So be careful if you are trying to short Equities Aaron.
Not trying to short equities too risk averse with no limit to your loses if asset price inflation continues indefinitely. Actually I should learn how to short shares. I have been meaning to sign up with a firm like Interactive brokers for awhile. I am just waiting patiently for an opportunity to buy assets cheaper. Whether I will recognise a bargain in the middle of a crisis is another story.
I believe in the theory that 2008 was a debt problem that has been solved with more debt which isn't really a solution at all. I have no idea what will happen in the future. The magic of inflation may make things alright and prices will never come down only increase and debt will vanish. This is what central banks and govts are working towards.
I understand the great depression was caused by excessive debt, this time round economic theory says that if we keep expanding the money supply and debt we won't have any problems I think this is still economic theory. We have got to negative interest rates and really the next step is helicopter money but at some point money becomes meaningless. I hope there is a drop in asset prices first otherwise I will be caught with worthless currency.
The S&P 500 Total Return Index, hit its previous all-time high of 8523.61 on July 20 of last year. It surpassed that record last week
NZ counts divies so why shouldnt the S&P
All time highs then - good eh
Needs another kick up the backside to get it to 2134
Hope it comes soon
When is the crash happening? getting impatient.
