I think the reason you don't see as many threads is because people don't want to point out what utter idiots they were. I mean did you really believe that all the people who proclaimed the end of the American empire and how the US was in for a continual economic downturn and all the other bullshit they spewed would show their faces.
If you want back over those same individuals posts over the years you would probably notice the same group telling people that the real estate market only ever goes up, a tech company with no plan to make a profit is a good investment, etc..... As someone else said, they regurgitate everything they read; they're a bunch of lemmings.

First of all the U.S. was never in a recession. Second, just like every other time the US economy has become weak it takes a while before that weakness works its way into other countries economies. The U.S. economy will be on the uptick well the rest of the world will still be feeling the symptoms of the U.S. slowdown.
When the U.S. sneezes the rest of the world catches a cold.
