Jeremy Grantham's Q1 2010 Letter: Playing with Fire (A Possible Race to the Old Highs)

Is there a new bubble on the horizon in the US? Having shot through GMO’s fair value estimate of 875, Jeremy Grantham's first quarter letter asks whether current policies and conditions are pushing the S&P to approach its old highs. Included in the letter is a link to a video of an interview about investment bubbles, done with Jeremy by the Financial Times on April 19. The Letters to the Investment Committee XVI is part one of a speech given by Jeremy discussing the Potential Disadvantages of Graham & Dodd-type Investing.
