Analytics are pointing to a sharp drop in the worldwide stock markets. The reasons are complex. Analytics also show there is a possibility of a financial meltdown in the next five years. According Mayan calendar December 2012 will experience a very cataclysmic change in the world and the way we live. It is really is the meltdown of the stock markets and financial systems in world, what will the world be in December 2012.

The biggest problem will be in real estate and banking sector. The financial services sector, the mortgage brokers and bankers, the real estate will be the greatest hit. Bank failures will be common. Unemployment rate will edge much higher. Those who still hold a job will earn far less. Deflation is the name of the game. Federal Reserve is doing everything it can boost the growth of the economy and come out of the deflation.

The prices will be lower like twenty-five years back. Apartment rentals, home prices, car prices will be lower. There is just one catch. There will be no real credit available. The banks will be scared to death to give a loan to anyone. Simply put, you are back in old days – pay for what you buy in cash. Foreclosed homes in millions will be available for sell but in cash only. The cars will have the same story.
