The markets have been reacting positively for months, what’s new here ?

Great news and the markets are reacting very positively to the news as well which indicates to me this could be the beginning of the end!

markets are going up.

I've been following the data, response and market reactions very closely.

Curious to understand why there has been a sudden jump in the last few weeks.

It’s up like 50% over 2 months. Nimble traders are raking.

There graph shows a market correction back to mid-2018 levels.

I'm not sure what caused the dramatic boost in 2019, but that spike appears to be more of an anomaly than a trend.


It’s rallying because there are a lot of undervalued stocks. There have been really good deals the past 2 months. And stocks are a great inflation hedge.

At the very least it’s causing the dips to be a lot more dramatic lately. Everyone’s on edge and reacting wildly to minor indicators.

The nice thing is it creates a lot more opportunities to build profit in an overall flat market.


If this is happening at all, it must be a very recent trend. There was no sign of valuations decreasing a month ago.

Is it just because the stock market is doing "well" right now or is there some other explanation?

How? The market has generally risen since then

Yes, but stocks are ripping higher on much worse jobless claims, housing starts, and Philly Fed numbers than expected, 113 unexplained cases of reinfection in South Korea, and the PPP fund being completely tapped out with three weeks to go in Congress' recess.

The market is fully convinced that everything is fixed.


The market tries to be forward looking. It seems to think the future got brighter (or at least not as dark).

Sounds like a great time to buy then if the market is over-reacting to news.

It is called market making the news. Easy to attribute to recent events like you said.

Seems like literally everything went up strongly.

The stocks going up for some reason.

They've been trending upward for the past four months, a third as long as the bear market.

All I know is the stock market is really antsy and wants to be done with this whole “inflation/recession crap”. They want to leave that behind and go back to the old times of worry free trading. Any moderate or neutral news is taken to positive and there is going to push it up
next
