They will indeed. And I don't expect to get the bottom exactly right, whether it be shares or property. However roughly right will do, and I expect we won't hit bottom for a couple of years yet - all that debt will have to be unwound causing loads of shocks to the financial system. It's a prefect economic storm.
My favourite investment had got to be property - worked last time.Hard Brexit now!

The main problem as I see it is debt caused by poor lending practices. Currently we are seeing a credit crunch caused by poor lending on mortgages in the US. This debt was sold on to the world banks who have suffered as a result and withdrawn credit. This has led to a destruction in the housing market and hence confidence. This in turn will lead to a contraction in spending, which will lead to companies going bust/and or poor results, which will lead to rising employment. That will lead to the fallout from people defaulting on their massive credit card debt and a second round of pain in the financial industry. (Credit card debt is sold on just like mortgage debt). All the while the housing market will be falling like a stone. The whole pack of cards is collapsing.
Oil prices and hence higher costs for everything are just accelerating the process.Hard Brexit now!
