DO NOT FIGHT THE FED. That is the most basic rule of investing in the stock market. People mix up what is happening in the economy with investing in the market. As long as Helicopter Ben is throwing money out the window, that excess money will find its way to the market. Now the ECB is finally joining the party. Enjoy or sit on the sidelines sipping water. Ironically if a Paul Voucher type person is put in the Fed it will be time to get out of the market while the economy takes its medicine.
Methinks this is the point being made at this site…
Central bankers can move markets upward for a while, but does this movement necessarily migrate across to the general economy. If not, then it doesn’t pay to be in the markets when the central bankers stop providing liquidity.
There is nowhere to hide and nothing to do except hold and hope.
