Searching For A Bubble

According to the evidence from Google, talk of a bubble (if we can infer that talk correlates with Google searches) peaks right near the top in the market. The only exception is bonds. The data below is relative; the peak value is set to 100.

Searches for Stock Market Bubble peaked before the market peaked in 2007. (All charts from Google Trends)


Searches for Oil Bubble peaked in June 2008, right at the top.


Searches for Real Estate Bubble peaked in 2005.


Searches for Bond Bubble peaked in August 2010.


Searches for Gold Bubble peaked in 2011, one month before the actual top.


Searches for China Bubble peaked in April 2010, four months before the Chinese stock market made its post-2008 peak.


And for fun, Bitcoin Bubble.
