This immediately made me think that the next bubble that will exist and eventually burst is with the Fed itself. Its balance sheet has already ballooned, er bubbled, to previously unknown levels, which leads me to believe that the next bubble is already here, and when it bursts it will gradually transfer the wealth of the US capitalistic system to other nations, most notably China. The belief was that tech stocks would never crumble and the Internet would destroy brick and mortar; the belief was that housing prices would always increase; and now the belief is that the US government is the only organization strong enough to own toxic assets. How long will it be before that belief is likewise proven to be baseless? The last fifty years have been fantastic, but lost faith in the US financial system and markets are going to be a difficult thing to regain, and be a source of significant economic pain during the next fifty years.<br /><br />Count me in as well on the giveaway – your blogging is much appreciated.Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11996675137617154788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433839636644874439.post-88386627356716087462009-05-26T20:34:29.162+00:002009-05-26T20:34:29.162+00:00Hum, The next bubble? food or alternative energy.
