> this bubble in the market makes me wary <

I’m not a financial adviser, and I do not play one on TV. But it seems to me that this stock market rise is due in large part to the very low yield on bonds (that yield set indirectly by the Fed).

To many folks, taking a risk in the stock market seems worthwhile when the alternative is a bond that doesn’t even yield what real inflation is.

So in my uneducated opinion, the market bubble will pop when either there is a catastrophic event (like a major war in the Middle East), or a significant rise in bond yields.
