Abstract
[eng] An analysis ot the crash : the misted rear-view mirror . Six months after the crash of october, no consensus has emerged on the mechanics of the crash of the stock market and thus on predictions. Amongst the determinants of the crash, economic (the twin U.S. deficits), monetary (the dollar behavior and the break down of the Louvre Agreement), financial (the recovery of long term rates of interest), or instrumental (the new financial instruments), none must be considered to have provoked the crisis. All these determinants reproduces today exactly the pattern they showed at the time of the crisis, but the market are well-behaved. We have again the proof that the relevance of the usual criteria of stock market diagnosis and forecasting remains inadequate. The endogeneous mechanics of the "financial sphera" stand as a field who remains almost completely to explore. [fre] Six mois après le krach d'octobre, le consensus sur le mécanisme de la crise boursière, et donc sur les pronostics, est loin d'être établi. Aucun des paramètres de la crise, qu'il soit économique (les déficits jumeaux américains), monétaire (le comportement du dollar et la rupture des accords du Louvre), financier (la remontée des taux longs), ou instrumental (les nouveaux instruments financiers) ne devait fatalement la provoquer. Aujourd'hui, tous ces paramètres reproduisent à l'identique l'équation de la crise, tandis que les marchés se portent bien. La preuve est à nouveau faite que les critères habituels du diagnostic et du pronostic boursiers ne sont pas suffisamment pertinents. Un domaine d'étude sur les mécanismes endogènes de la « sphère financière » reste à défricher presque complètement.
