Shiller: We Could Be Facing A Decade Of Real Weakness

Somewhat messy ... article at TimesOnline, see full article here: http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/economics/article5496559.ece

I was a bit surprised by "decade" ...

Key message, in my view:

“We could have many years of a very weak economy. Big recessions are followed by years of weakness and typically unemployment keeps rising."

“To say that this will last years is not a dramatic statement. What is happening now is much worse than 1990. We could be facing a decade of real weakness."



Well, he may be wrong, but consider as a probability ...
