Poll - QE, double dip etc.

[shalab]

My opinion on this topic is as follows - so far there is no evidence of a double dip recession (despite all the ranting by different folks). This is not to say that it wont happen, it could happen if all the governments apply the breaks, raise interest rates etc. The indication thus far is that several countries (India, Indonesia, China) are tightening the screws to prevent overheating. The real estate prices in these countries have reached/surpassed the pre-crisis levels. In the U.S, the balance sheets of companies/consumers has generally improved but people are not willing to lend recklessly like before or spend recklessly like before. The unemployment is still high which isn't great but is probably needed for the adjustment.

 

cheers!

perhaps you can add as an option to the poll:

"never got out of the first dip" - on an absolute basis

 

Thats what alot of smart minds i mesh with think.
