The Feast of Belshazzar
"It has been counted and counted, weighed and divided" said the writing on the wall at the Biblical feast of the doomed Belshazzar. Sounds like an economic forecast to me, in particular one for the thoroughly unpleasant 2005 that seems likely to unfold.
Some of these dangers are short term, some may be delayed for several years, even a decade or so. But the chance that NONE of them will hit us in 2005, causing a sharp reappraisal in the stock market with all the economic ill-effects that would bring, must be more or less zero.
