> unlikely that stocks will make a quick return to their prior levels unless governments engage in massive asset inflation.

I agree with you, and I'm especially concerned about this "unless". Markets are supposed to reward accurate predictions, but I would not be willing to put my money where my mouth is now. How can we trust the stock market will not be massively manipulated by the US government, by bailouts, and by measures like stock buybacks?
