    And afterwards, when they know precisely how far governments would go, they got it wrong again by still predicting further falls.

    Only so far governments can go though. The deficits will have to be cut from next year and therefore falls could easily happen.

    Only those with timescales have got it wrong. It will be at least 12-24 months before you can say without fail bears were wrong.

    You people are bear obsessed aren't you? Is it because you all got banned from hpc.co.uk?

    I remember when I found this place and stopped posting over there.

    I actually got to read thread about actual economics. And then they started banning you and you all began trudging over here ranting about bears.

    The bears were certainly wrong in 2009. I well remember the 'bull trap' they told us about this time last year. :rotfl:

    It is of course possible for further falls in the next year or so, but another crash is highly unlikely with IR's so low and predicted to be so for some years.
    If I don't reply to your post,
    you're probably on my ignore list.

    The bears were perfectly happy for us to post on HPC ~ right up until the day they realised we were right.

    Fortunately you can't ban us here ~ ML won't allow it.

    Thank you Martin Lewis.
