It seems that the most widespread technical term for the (yet "mysterious") processes that preclude financial crisises is overheating. For example, there is much concern at the moment about overheating in the Baltic markets. Here is a global news report:

A year ago the economy of tiny Iceland went into a skid. It was a wake-up call for traders who chased high yields around the globe with little regard to economic risks.

Now, another small, red-hot economy in Europe's cold north is in the spotlight, and markets are taking a hard look at its peers for signs of trouble brewing elsewhere.

2. Financial bubble
   
3. Minsky's Ponzi financing
