  4. Next US bubble - healthcare.

    Unpopped bubbles - British housing market, smaller US commercial real estate, and the hedge fund craze. China too - but hell if I can say what will pop it off.

    why is that very important items like Bubbles are mostly missed even by most of the intelligent trend forecasters. Is that a main condition of a bubble, that initially investors do not realise that bull run is long term and when it actually is acknowledged, massive amounts of money is poured in and Bull run turns into a bubble.

  8. classic and vintage cars.

    Not a bubble yet, but the prices have been steadily rising for the last few years.

    I think the Chinese economy as a whole (real GDP, real wages) will most likely continue to skyrocket for decades. Even if reforms slow down, what they already have in place is pretty impressive and they should continue to narrow the wealth gap over time.

    On the other hand, the Chinese stock market is showing classic signs of full-blown mania.

  10. With them printing paper currency at will and dropping it everywhere and the economy going into a nosedive anyway my guess is the next bubble will be dollar, euro, and yen alternatives.

    I think it will be gold. They can't print it.
