The difference is that between late 90s and 2008, there has been a single decade at most.
However, at this point, we are talking about a few decades with many predicted catalysts actually happening, but not the inflation surge itself.
- refurb 5y agoThe money supply was rapidly expanded in 2008. That’s 13 years ago and we’ve seen massive asset inflation since. There is ample reason to think it might still blow up in our faces.

The underlying hypothesis is that institutional investors are dumping their cash into real estate as an alternative to low-rise investments that recently started to pay negative interest rates. In fact, we are starting to see places around the world whose local government started blocking real estate purchases from institutional investors as they were pricing families out of the market.
