1. It's not over yet.

2. Stock market is up 50% since March crash

That is just paper profits. Not economic recovery.

3. And the rich will cash in their profits in one stunning blow

Sometime....before the end of this year....I think they will pull out all at once and the market will crash down below Covid plunge levels. And the rest of us suckers will be left holding the bag and getting wiped out.

12. The break in market levels may be precipitous

13. I am already out 100%

I can't afford the risk at age 80 to hang on.
Economy will be very slow recovery lasting 5-6 years.

14. Same here

I’ve got all my spare money sitting in a brokerage account. I pulled out a month ago. At this point I’d rather preserve my capital than risk an enormous loss.

15. There may be some bargain index funds

to pick up in October. But will definitely be a speculation for market to go higher with Santa rally.

5. S&P Down 0.2% From Yearly High

And, down 0.017% YTD.
The fed infusion managed to minimize losses but did little to foment real growth.
We're going on a full 67% of a year and index funds have basically made nothing this year.

4. It is up because it is being artificially inflated with the paper money infusion by the Fed.

Watch what happens after the election. I think we will have a YUGE crash. President Biden and his administration will have their work cut out for them to restore our economic health, among many other major problems. Our financial advisor told us that that is one of the reasons that the value of gold and silver have sky rocketed.

8. The M1 money supply is up 38 percent so farmers this year.

The M1 money supply is actual spendable cash in the economy. Inflation is about to make a BIG comeback.

9. Yep, Benedict Donald will burn down the house on his way out of it

[misanthrope]

10. All things according to their nature

and Donald J. Trump's nature is destruction.

6. ...

7. THIS !!! Stock market is not the economy

[misanthrope]

11. Beautifully apt

I'll have to grab this one.

16. Look at the M1 money supply growth, according the Federal Reserve.
