What I suspect it will happen in the U.S. stock market is, it is going to have some kind of correction somewhere along the line for whatever reason and then everybody will call up Washington and say, “Oh my God! You have to save us, civilization is at risk. You will ruin your reputation and our work.”
The bureaucrats and politicians that are not terribly smart, they will panic and they will come to the rescue. I do not know what they will do, they will do something to calm everybody down and I suspect the market will turn around and have another big rally.

Prime Minister Abe and the head of the Central Bank seem determined to do whatever it takes to drive things higher. They said they will print, in their words, unlimited amounts of money, so I am afraid it will turn into a bubble but in any case, I am still buying.
