Hey,
A question for those with financial/investing acumen:

"Past performance is not a guarantee of future returns"

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Since I've started 'investing' I have lived through three bubbles - The Japanese Real Estate bubble, the Tech Stocks Bubble and most recently, the Housing Market (sub-prime mortgage) bubble.

Since I've become more attentive to how my portfolio is doing, I'd
like to be on top of what's going on and anticipate the next bubble
and mimimize the angst by pulling out before the next spectacular free-fall (that seem to be occurring at shorter intervals).

I prognosticate that the next 'Bubble' will be related to Health Care
and Pensions and will pop in 2012-2013. In the mean time, the
market will continue it's modest upward trend (up 5-6% since '08??)

What say you?
