New to this section. I may not be as sophisticated as the rest of you. One thread says the equity market crash is coming. Another says the housing market crash is coming.

So my question is, if everything's in a bubble that's about to pop, shouldn't we be preparing for ... deflation?

Not everything. In fact, according to economics, if some thigs are overvalued, then by definition some things must be undervalued.

Fair enough. So what are the things that are undervalued?
