Piss off, and put your head back where it belongs.

This is Robert Shiller, not some 'gold bug,' 'tin foil hat,' 'end of the world' kind of guy. He has immense credibility. Even in the depths of the market plunge in February, or back when the residential real estate market was breaking hard for the first time back in late 07 and early 08, I...

I know of three markets that FORMERLY had strong job markets, and have it on first hand knowledge that all three are now struggling: Charlotte (friends there), Seattle (relatives there) and Albuquerque (friend there).

The Nikkei has fallen from just under 40,000 to 7,500 today, over a period of 20 YEARS. Good luck to those who were in their 40s or 50s who had invested a large chunk of their retirement saving in the Nikkei in the hopes of retiring wealthy. 20 YEARS of the Nikkei dropping like a stone...

I just got back from lunch with a friend who used to work for a well known bank, that shall remain unnamed, doing nothing but mortgages. He was a rising superstar there for four years. They fired him recently, and he's struck out on his own now, with three kids and a wife. He was making...

Stay the hell away. I know this area of commerce very well, and regardless of adverse health effect issue, resale values suck with these affecting aesthetic nature of property. You would not believe how much we've had to discount lots alone because they were in close proximity to power...

No one wants to or can rebut this very strong assertion? Listen closely to Shilling's analysis of the past 28 years. In his Insight newsletter he compares the performance of the S&P 500 stock index to the bond market. First he focuses on his "all-time favorite graph" comparing "the results...
