Robert Shiller expressed recently his concerns about market valuations that could lead to another downleg in the stock market:
"Robert Shiller, the Yale economist who famously predicted the 2000-02 stock crash, says the market may be in trouble once more. Stocks already are overvalued, he says. And a renewed housing slump could send the market tumbling. "I wonder about a return to another break in the market," he recently told The Wall Street Journal."

On the economic front he predicts a slow recovery, "The more plausible, bad scenario is not a double dip but just a very slow recovery where the unemployment rate comes down but only over years".
