That's not it. It's been overbought for a very long time. The top FANG stocks are trading at 20-35 P/E. if they had normalized rates back during Obama's second term, most folks would be happy with 5-6 percent return on capital, without all the risk. And this would have never inflated to where it is now.

Stocks are about the future not the present.


The market is realizing that the Trump economy is going to crash soon. It's simple as that. If they think the economy will be growing, the stock market could easily power through all the noise about interest rates.

It's not the Trump economy ....and he was a dumb-ass for taking credit for the Obama economy--that he correctly identified as a bubble before and during the campaign--- that was flush with 4 1/2 trillion of QE
--- that's now being sucked out.

You can't be serous that a president who had imposed all kinds of tariff, unnecessary tax breaks, and appointed a new Fed Chairman can still pass off this economy as someone else's???!!


This is definitely the Trump economy.

4 1/2 trillion in QE out of thin air and ZIRP is what is responsible for the inevitable. If you don't realize that, then you don't belong in the discussion.

They are already starting to make up excuses. Recession is coming and we all are going to have to suffer.

Let's face it. Trumpism isn't, never has, and never will be about the economy. It's a cultural movement that asserts the superiority of white fundamentalist Christian men above everyone else and seeks to enforce patriarchal social order.
