They are at least $75 billion per month overvalued that the fed is pumping in to the market every month. Let the good times roll until they don’t. Then bail the whole lot out after the crash.

How many times do we need to go over this?

They are buying Treasuries and Mortgage-backed securities, NONE of it goes to the stock market.

The stock market rise has been fueled by two things:

Corporate profits in general continue to rise

P/E multiples have expanded back to historical norms from SEVERELY undervalued levels following the 2008 financial panic.

CAN I MAKE THIS ANY SIMPLER for the dis-believers?

There won’t be anything to bail them out with after the crash hits the fan.

I’d take that prognostication more seriously if I hadn’t heard it for the last NEARLY 10,000 POINT MOVE in the Dow. You Bears are clueless. Go buy some more Gold at $1800 per ounce.

- It’s almost entirely because of the trillions of dollars Bernanke has conjured out of thin air and injected into the banking/investment complex. It’s simply “reinflating the bubble.” -

It is Obama and his radical friends in congress who are responsible for out-of-control spending (and reinflating the bubble). The Feds printing money is the consequence of Congressional spending not the cause.

“(I think the trick is to figure out or discover just how they siphon off their “take” ?”

They know when the bubble is going to burst. After all, they are the ones creating it. So they cash out into something that will not lose value just before it bursts. When was the last time a government leader was prosecuted for what amounts to insider trading? If it does happen, it’s a political assassination instead of a true criminal prosecution.

They're exempt. That's one of the HUGE attractions of the office. And why people spend millions to get a job that pays thousands. Even CNBC reported that Congress members achieve "market crushing" returns.

Don't waste your time.

These posters think Henry Blodget, a convicted fraud, is a reliable source of market analysis.

I somewhat agree with what you say but if the unemployment extension ends, that many out of the workforce with make UE numbers go down to maybe 6%, then the fed stops QE100 then I wonder what happens???
