Nasdaq 100 did that in 1999, so sure, why not make a bigger bubble. Everything about China is 10x bigger anyway.
As the Shangai closed above 4000 I give you this.......but remember that saying "this time its different" Chinese tech stocks are a 'bubble in the making' MYLES UDLAND APR. 8, 2015, 7:39 AM Read more: http://www.businessinsider.com/chinese-stock-bubble-2015-4#ixzz3WulM9LpS Chinese technology stocks are now more expensive than the Nasdaq was at the height of the dot-com bubble. A report from Bloomberg News on Tuesday noted that the price-to-earnings ratio of Chinese internet stocks is now at 220 times earnings, way above the 156 earnings multiple the Nasdaq garnered at the height of the tech bubble in March 2000. "Chinese technology stocks do resemble the dot-com bubble," Vincent Chan of Credit Suisse told Bloomberg. "Given stocks fell 50%-70% when that bubble burst in 2000, these small-cap Chinese shares may face big corrections when this one deflates." Teng Bingsheng, an associate dean at the Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business in Beijing, told Bloomberg that the market is a "bubble in the making ... valuations are extremely expensive." On Wednesday, the Shanghai Composite, China's main stock index, hit 4,000 for the first time since 2008, bringing its gains over the last year to nearly 100%. Bloomberg noted that while valuations for Chinese tech stocks is sky high, this sector represents about 13% of the overall stock market in China, less than the 31% that tech stocks accounted for in the US during the dot-com bubble. This news also follows a report last week that showed 6% of China's newest stock market investors can't read. "That doesn't mean it can't be sustained," Bloomberg's Tom Orlik wrote in a report last week. "China has a large population with a substantial volume of savings and limited alternative investment options. It does mean that the trajectory of China's markets will be unpredictable, and prone to sudden reversals as sentiment shifts."

No, not different, but what are you going to do about it? Short and get squeezed before it eventually crashes?
It could fall...just thinking it is pointless to talk about up 100% in 12 months and trade 3x levered ETFs. One up swing and you are wiped out, even if it does crash -90% later.
Another up day in the market, dow is looking to break 18,000 which it should and move up over 100 points by mid day, once the momentum kicks in like it always does there is no stopping it......every day this week there has been a move to the upside that has stuck into the close, well maybe Tuesday was the only day it fell, but this week has been straight up, I guess its those great earnings that are going to be coming through over the next few weeks, they were only lowered numerous times and most companies as we all know under promise and over deliver, thats been the trend on wall street for years, they lowball all the estimates and beat.....
VIX now at 12.93....very low....whatc what happens Monday morning....they will gap it up. When ever it gets to low during the week....Monday will gap up at the open.....I have seen this year after year for 15 years.
VIX is incredibly low.....means everyone is way too comfortable now, meaning everyone thinks there is zero risk....just keep buying, maybe the vix breaks 10 and heads to levels never seen before, 8.. 7... 6... 4...damn why even have the vix at this point, with zero fear in this market the vix should be obsolete...
