    US markets rise to new highs b/c of inflation only!... :) Just think about it...
    There is really no true economic reason for the rise except the inflation, especially for the US...
    IMO.

    Yeah, good question, indeed.
    Was just trying to find a logic behind the things happening. :)

    They rise to new highs wether inflation or not . There was little inflation in the 90’s and we went up 18% a yr for the decade . Always remember no matter what the news the mkt always rises . There’s always an excuse for it to rise wether its good or bad news .It’s slays spun to be good for stks.

    Then the US markets made no progress between 1998 and 2012. 14 years when it went no return except dividends

    In regards to what drives prices, you would probably find Chapters 4 and 5 in one of Soros's best books, "Soros on Soros" extremely enlightening. I know I did.

    Inflation should drive nominal equity prices up. That's rational thinking. But that's only one factor.

  7. U.S stock indexes rise in lockstep with the FOMC balance sheet. Won't be long until the FOMC halts the publication of its money printing. They are neck-deep into our so-called free markets.

    Well said. All's just a big l-i-e :)
    W/o such govt intervention (one can also say market manipulation) the US market would crash.

    You are totally clueless. Correlation does not indicate causation. You don't even know what you mean by "money printing" it's just a conspiracy theory you have.
