I'm not sure we can get a bust when all the major reserve banks (especially the US Federal Reserve) keep propping up the economy. The real question is how much longer can investors take advantage of this? We've basically been in QE since 2009 (almost a decade?). The real test, as said in other comments here, will be when the US Federal Reserve pulls back. If the markets can take the burden then it'll survive but maybe at a lower rate of growth. If they can't bare any burden I think we'll see it immediately.
