I suspect a lot here hoping for a market crash do not necessary understand what they are hoping for. Human fear is a very powerful sentiment and can be driven to react illogically regardless of educational achievements.
BTW, Shangcomp collapsed should be treated in isolation because the bulk of the domestic fortune is not really tied to the stock markets unlike developed economies. That is not to say I underestimate the collateral damage it inflicts. My main worry is China is the real trigger for our economic volatility because our private sector debt is so large as a % of GDP and so exposed to non foreign exporting income. Property bubbles or the perceived one in Syd/Mel is no different to Chinese Ghost cities. Just looking for the spark to encourage mass exits through a small door!

Gold and Silver were trading up with the stock market during Lehman collapse, they are now at opposite ends of the spectrum first time ever mind you. This is what QE has done, markets all time highs. When she goes Gold and Silver are not going in reverse this time.
