A view from Harry S. Dent Jnr. (reading his latest book).
Dent sees this period as similar to the 1840s which was not as severe as the 1930s. But will still likely go down as another "great depression'.
Predicts 1930s style depression for the late 2060s to late 2070s.
Inflation trend from mid-2009 to late 2009 or mid-2010. Then a reverse to deflationary trend in prices, as the economy slows and all assets deflate. The sudden deflationary trend will be the biggest surprise ahead - the last thing most investors and economists will expect after the inflationary resurgance.
