“At least one notable investor thinks we may be in bubble trouble again. Sam Zell on Thursday at the SALT hedge fund conference in Las Vegas said stocks are due for a fall. The legendary real estate investor thinks the market is out of touch with what is really going on in the economy. ‘Right now you are buying at an all-time high,’ says Zell. ‘And there are times when stocks hit a high, and then go higher, but that’s when you have a good economy.’ By contrast, Zell said the companies he runs and looks at are still struggling to increase sales. Zell said he was worried about problems in the Middle East and recent aggressive efforts by the Bank of Japan.”
