These phenomena are characterized by irrational investment in intangible or faddish items, often signaling the end of a market run before a crash.

Dvorak revisits his theory of a 40-year economic cycle, predicting a major depression in late 2016 or 2017.

A major global economic collapse is predicted to occur between late 2016 and late 2017, with real estate and entertainment cited as potential "safe" sectors.
