if you havn't seen this speech yet, you should, here he predicts everything that would happen to the US housing market at a mortgage bankers conference in 2006, and by extension, what will happen here.

Not watched it, but didn't it already happen? i.e. past tense now as it's 5 years old and we have already seen a circa 20% correction in that time.
Are you inferring it will repeat again?:wall:
What we've got here is....... failure to communicate.
Some men you just can't reach.

Out of interest what did he predict for the USD at that time?'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is.

Schiff predicted an 80 or 90% fall, the US crash is ahead of ours we lag the US by about a year, more importantly he explains the economic fundamentals behind booms and busts.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature.

he predicted that the usd would eventually collapse in value as foreigners realise that the trillions in IOUs could never be repayed. It would be nice if somone actually watched it before the counterarguments came in though. its a bit of an eye opener.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature.

So this was 2006, in the video he says that they will have 2 Trillion of adjustable mortgages to reset over the next couple of years. (about 24:00) so what happened
BTW there was no eventually about that USD call,he was calling it imminent and bowled his investors a right googly :eek: 'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is.

Peter Schiff is a complete !!!!.
The USD will collapse, stocks will crater !!!
He hasn't a clue, he is a self publicist whose only interest is conning people into signing up for his useless services.'In nature, there are neither rewards nor punishments - there are Consequences.'0 -

in 2006 the usdx was at 94 now its at 77, a brief spike in 2008 from safety flight now heading down again if you watch the speech he says 'eventual collapse'.
