That's a good question. You know naysayers have been predicting the downfall of everything from the property market to the stock market. It all seems to be a series of corrections, and keeps barreling on.
For me the key distinction that will keep the US on top of China for awhile is the absolute global superiority in technology development, investment and spending. This sector is massive and creates new wealth daily.
