There is now a wiki page about Austrian predictions.

 

Does anybody know about more instances of successful predictions (say, e.g. the Japanese bubble or the L&S crisis)?

Found a blog very hostile to Austrians, under point (16) "Questionable or Failed Austrian Predictions" it person seems to take apart some Austrian predictions, in great detail and with full bibliography. It would be interesting to check his stuff...

No surprise; but his focus on detail may prove useful. :)

And now we've found something for the Savings & Loans crisis, courtesy of Rothbard himself (with special thanks to Nathan for discovering it).
