Interesting, I see your point, it may just be a matter of scaling in my plots and also their scaling versus yours.  Anyway, if you turn out to be correct then that would be good for us all.

Yep, let's hope so, although there could be significant pain to come first as people continue to panic over the news headlines. Which seems to be Trade War currently. In 2012, it was the Greece bailout and potential collapse of Europe if I remember correctly. There's always something for the media to pump.

Well, without getting political, we have Brexit / Post Brexit which will be controversial whatever happens, the US election which again will be controversial no matter who wins, will Italy do something of significance for the Euro and whatever the Chinese economy does.  I can't see us running out of news for a while...
