The slides tend to be sarcastic, saying that humans rarely learn from their mistakes. You can still put matters in a positive light, saying that markets will eventually recover.

ovberall it shows clearly that asian nations will rise and potentially india will become the financil capital of the world.History repeats itself first as a farce then as a tragedy;US of A will have to learn that temporay elation will lead to deepened erosion and loss of moral confidence and most important the spirit that we can do this.With jobs becoming scarier qualifications narrowing morality plummetting let us be honest and acknowledge that India as as global power,quote Nostradamas prophecy

Dave,
nope. Asian nations are not in the list of winners. They are predominantly industrial. The industry is mostly impacted by the global crisis. Yes, they are at the end of the chain. They’ll get the short stick last, but they’ll have the shortest stick of all players, and they will carry it long after the rest of the players are recovered.

Irresponsible lending practices. Lending up to 110% of the purchase price of the assets, lending without down payment, allowing borrowers to have more than a 1/3 of their income going to their mortgage. Crazy loans like short term ARM, interest only loans.
The problem with no down-payment mortgage is that the borrower has no equity into the house. If he cannot pay his mortgage he losses nothing or hardly nothing. It’s like renting. Lending practices need to be clean up and lending requirement need to be tighter.

It will take years to recover economy but it totally depend how governements handle the situation. Government should reduce taxes and announce incentives to investors to recover from financial crisis.
