Dow 20,000 in 5 years?

[Grieve]

Just like the extreme left/right political split in this country right now, I don't know if there has ever been such a wide gulf between commentators/"experts" who think the markets are either about to plummet to new lows, or zoom up to new highs.

Of course being a sunny optimist, I'm in the latter camp, so I like the article below suggesting the US market could soar 89% higher over the next 5 years...
