Ofcourse we know commodity-cruves like oil and commodity prices have peaked nearly every 30 years, as in 1920, 1951, 1980 — and next likely around late 2009 to mid-2010? But are we also aware that we have seen long-term peaks in our stock market and economy very close to every 40 years due to generational spending trends: as in 1929, 1968, and next around 2009?  The three massive bubbles that have been booming for the last few decades — stocks, real estate, and commodities — have all reached their peak and are deflating simultaneously. Economic forecaster Harry S. Dent, Jr.: “The year 2009 will be the beginning of the next long-term winter season and the initial end of prosperity in almost every market, ushering in a downturn like most of us have not experienced before. Conventional investment wisdom will no longer apply, and investors on every level must drastically reevaluate their policies in order to survive. But despite the dire news and dark predictions, there are real opportunities to come from the greatest fire sale on financial assets since the early 1930s. With the right knowledge and preparation, you can take advantage of new wealth opportunities rather than get caught in a downward spiral. Our lives are about to change for reasons outside of our control, but you can’t change the direction of the winds, but you can reset your sails!”
