I agree with everything you've said except for the real estate bubble. There is still a housing shortage. While I see a correction within a year or two, I don't think it's as bad as the bubble of the mid 2000's. When the investment groups decide to move their assets away from real estate and into something else, I think you'll see more of a correction. Rising interest rates will help home prices some, but rent will still be high for now. Plus, with inflation, the cost of homes, like everything else, is just going to be more expensive form now on.

There is only a shortage because blackrock and vanguard are buying up everything at 10% over market values. Which is only happening because of all the free money they get from the fed at 0%. Which is now ending. So Real Estate will lag behind the stock market, but it will crash after the stock market just like in 2008, and for basically the same reason. As soon as blackrock and vanguard stop buying and start selling, there will be a massive housing crash.
