ROBERT PRECHTER : 6 TRENDS ABOUT TO REVERSE

Here's an article I came across in 'The Business Insider' > Robert Prechter: These 6 Trends Are About To Reverse
"

Prechter argues there are several themes out there right now that investors, economists, and markets all believe to be true just like they did with interest rates in the 1980s.




  • The dollar - everyone is bearish.


  • Interest rates - everyone thinks they're going to rise.


  • The stock market - everyone is bullish but corporate insiders.


  • Inflation expectations - everyone thinks it is going to go higher.


  • Economy - everyone is confident in 2011.


  • Oil - everyone thinks it is heading higher.

"


He makes some really valid points. Ignore the principles of 'Madness of crowds' and 'mean reversion' at your own risk.
