Some of the better charts I’ve seen…
Henry Blodget put these series of charts on his website. Turns out he got them from another site. And now, I’m putting it here. There’s one chart in particular that continues to draw me in, even after seeing it in one way or another for a few years. It’s the S&P 500-Nikkei overlay:
The Nikkei had multiple bull market rallies, but the end result was the same: wealth destruction, economic stagnation, and increased government debt. The scary part is that US economicsts and government officials blamed Japanese tactics for the prolonged slump: propping up bad banks (zombie banks), increasing government expenses (not investments), quantitative easing, etc. Sound familiar? Take a look at the other charts for some reality checks…
