Farrell schreibt: Warren Buffett, der gerade die Sicherheit der US-Banken "garantiert" hat, hatte 2008 (bislang korrekt) eine Wiederaufblasung der Aktienmärkte "garantiert" - mit folgendem noch stärkeren Kollaps (steht noch aus). Wohlgemerkt: "garantiert".
Buffett soll laut Farrell für den nächsten Crash bereits 20 Mrd. in Cash bereit halten, um dann günstig Schnäppchen einzusammeln.
Das ist der Zeitpunkt, an dem die jetzt auf Goldman-Empfehlung kaufenden "schwachen Hände" resigniert - und mit hohen Verlusten - an "starke Hände" (Buffett) abgeben...

SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. (MarketWatch) –
Mr. Buffett, “do you think there will be another bubble leading to a huge recession?” asked the interviewer. Oh yes, in fact, “I can guarantee it.” Guarantee it.The interviewer shook his head: “Why can’t we learn the lessons of the last recession? Look where greed has gotten us.” Then with one of his familiar impish grins, the great master replied, “Greed is fun for a while. People can’t resist it.” But “however far human beings have come, we haven’t grown up emotionally at all. We remain the same.”
Warren Buffett made that prediction shortly after the 2008 Wall Street banking meltdown. The world’s third-richest billionaire personally guaranteeing another bubble ...
guaranteeing America another market meltdown ... guaranteeing the world another “huge recession.” Now here we are four years later, and the ticking time bomb gets louder as we keep watching an avalanche of predictions echoing Buffett’s warnings.
Deepak Chopra mentions Buffett’s on-air prediction in the “Shadow Effect,” a brilliant bit of psychology that helps explain why the investor’s brain is trapped in denial, incapable of hearing a warning of a market and economic collapse.
Uncle Warren must be chomping at the bit, sitting on a cash hoard, more than $20 billion, waiting to rush in, buy when the bottom drops, exposing millions of investors lulled back by those pre-2008 delusions about a new long-term bull market.
In another era, Buffett would rival Freud and Jung in diagnosing human behavior accurately. But today, he’s using his psychological genius to outwit Wall Street’s perennial bulls and America’s 95 million gullible Main Street investors.
Buffett’s prediction “guaranteeing another huge recession” was actually a no-brainer. Read William J. O’Neil’s bestseller “How to Make Money in Stocks.” The publisher of the Investors Business Daily is one of the best numbers guys in the world. In his first edition he says: “During the last 50 years, we have had 12 bull markets and 11 bear markets … The bull markets averaged going up about 100% and the bear markets, on the average, declined 25% to 30%.” And “the typical bull market lasted 3.75 years and the classic bear market lingered only nine months.”
Warning, while Wall Street assumes these bull/bear cycles will continue ad infinitum, they may be coming to a slow, painful end by 2050.
Stock market’s long bull-bear—cycle ending, long painful bear ahead
Plan for no growth or zero growth. Or worse, wake up, see why Wall Street, America and the world economy are in the early stages of a long era of “de-growth,” a reversal of economic growth and reduction in market growth as population growth puts increasing new stresses on natural resources, commodity inflation, unemployment, social unrest, disasters, wars.
And it’ll get worse. Fast. More and more savvy guys like Buffett agree.
Bottom line: Earnings growth is in a long macroeconomic downtrend. Economies headed down. Earnings down. Stocks down. Trading down. Solution, shift your focus to the long-term, to history, look way past the fiscal cliffs noise, congressional insanity.
An economic “perfect storm” is building: That’s bad news for markets, spells danger for your future income, your family’s security. Start planning ahead for an era of low returns and austerity as these macroeconomic trends build to critical mass, primed to ignite, explode. ......................
