Nothing new under the sun...

Reluctant as I am to say it, but maybe it's different this time? As you well know by now, I am pretty bearish on equity markets, but believe that the pain trade continues to be to the upside for the time being...

... but not because of this chart from Morgan Stanley, which I got this afternoon, which shows "the evolution of 3 bubbles - the Nikkei in the 1980's, the Nasdaq in the 1990's and China A-shares in this decade. The peak of each market has been aligned to coincide. According to this chart and if history is to be repeated, we could see a dead cat bounce of about 20% before the market resumes its fall of another 50%."

Quality broking.
