“Alan Greenspan, who served as Fed chairman between 1987 and 2006, told Bloomberg: ‘I think we have a pending bond market bubble. If we merely substitute the structure of equity prices, and we have the price of bonds, and instead of expected equity return we have expected interest rate return, that price earnings ratio is in an extraordinary unstable position.’ Mr Greenspan, who has been criticised for fuelling the US housing bubble by keeping rates down in the early 2000s and failing to keep a closer eye on banks, said behavioural economics was playing a central role in investor decision making. Mr Greenspan also said oil prices had further to fall.”
