Well people like Robert Shilling, Marc Faber, et al. have been throwing around the "bubble" word a lot the last 2-3 weeks, so it's not like a market correction isn't expected by a lot of people, myself included.

Since we're near the tail end of a lengthy 14-year bearish period for stocks, I don't think prices are terrible for the long term, but I do think that there will be a significant shakeout with home prices and equity prices as economic policy begins to transition, and more talk starts to revolve around a 2nd sequester, ObamaCare implementation, Fed tapering, etc.

Several major players, John Paulson among them, suggest real estate, REITs as a potential haven.
