Government has made stocks more of a crap shoot.
Zero interest rates has destroyed American davings.
Savings
That is one reason I’m out. Fundamentals don’t apply the way they used to. However, one can still make money on technicals. But it’s more like gambling than it ever was.
100% correct you are. Without zero interest rates policy (ZIRP) SP500 would be selling around 1750. I pay no attention to DJ30 because the 30 stocks are constantly switched based on profitability.
As for the market, I expect the Trump bull market to continue for a month or two.
And yes, ZIRP by Janey Yellen has stolen from savers and seniors to finance welfare and foreign wars which gain nothing in return. Foreign wars on borrowed money is how most of the historical superpowers met their demise. Do not ignore history, otherwise you shall be doomed to repeat it. First time since Reagan we have a new president who does not believe in foreign wars which gain nothing and cost a fortune in money and blood.
Stocks are not a “crap shoot”...if you know what you are doing.
