Subject: Re: S&P overvaluation
GMO Funds forecast a real, annualized return over the next seven years (the period that they consider to be the most predictable) for US large cap stocks of -5.7% to -2.7% (depending on interest rates).

Whatever the best forecast is, it's not likely to be high, or even average.

Furthermore, corrections are usually sharpest in the first year or two, so whether the real, 7-year return is -5.7% (GMO) or the nominal, 12-year return is -6% (Hussman), the 1-year or 2-year or 3-year return can be expected to be lower than the 7-year or 12-year annualized return. My wild guess would be that we will see a significant correction (say, 30% or more) within the next one to three years for the S&P, and an annualized return over the next 7-12 years for the S&P that is lower than T-Bills.
