Doom & gloom...the bottom is going to fall out...the stock market is going to crash...it's coming...it'll come in 2010...it'll come in 2011...it'll come in 2012...now it'll come in 2013 or 2014. Well, yeah, I guess if you keep pushing it back long enough, sooner or later you'll be right.

There will be a global recession. It's bound to happen. It always happens. But eh, I'll believe it when I see it.
