Which Way is the Wind Blowing?

Please use the comments to demonstrate your own ignorance, unfamiliarity with empirical data and lack of respect for scientific knowledge. Be sure to create straw men and argue against things I have neither said nor implied. If you could repeat previously discredited memes or steer the conversation into irrelevant, off topic discussions, it would be appreciated. Lastly, kindly forgo all civility in your discourse . . . you are, after all, anonymous.

I’m getting the same feelings I had early in 2008. The roller coaster cars are picking up speed going over that first hill. In 2008 there were several specific catalysts including Lehman. The background in 2008 was collapsing housing markets and growing mortgage delinquencies. Will Greece, followed by Spain, Portugal be our “Lehman moment” this time? Feels like it. In 2012 the background is a national drought, slumping economies virtually everywhere in the world and a thoroughly disfunctional domestic political situation which takes away any meaninful government response. We are so f__ked.

Except for one thing – unlike 2008, almost everyone now is expecting the shite to hit the fan. So the doom and gloom is pretty much already factored in.

In 2008 what we experienced was a panic. There was a build-up to that point. Yet the panic was not anticipated because the negative synergies which reached in so many ways into so many portions of the economy were not understood or foreseen. For some reason, we are not expecting any negative synergies this time either. We are pricing in a number of one-ofs.
