In March 2009 the S & P hit a low of 666 and now it’s trading at 2,270 a gain of over 250 percent. In 1929 after the stock market crash, the market lost over 90 percent of its value. The 2017 crash is going to be the beginning of a similar sell off. The USA is a declining super power that is 20 trillion dollars in debt. The USA stock market is not a good investment. It is so over bought that a huge decline leading to most shareholders running to the exits could and will start at any moment. Don't be the last to be playing the game of greedier and greedier paying up for shares in the largest casino in the world. The smart money is already out they've distributed their shares to the unsuspecting public. At the very least sell everything and for the speculators buying put options on the S & P can become your new best friend that makes you lots of money.
20 trillion created out of thin air. Can it go on forever. Do I hear 30 trillion ? 50 trillion ? 100 trillion ? Sooner or later this Ponzi scheme will come to an end. And when it does it will be the end of the stock market as we know it.
Hmm! Why not just stay with the trend and make money until it reverses. Not sure buying puts in the S&P worked over the last few years. But I get your message. The bird will come home to roost eventually.
