The Economy in USA, Does the Stock Market Predict A Rosy Future?

stock here. I started the blog world as a stock market commentator. I strongly believe that the Great Spirit would not let me make wealth by simply trading, which is a zero sum game at best (less the skim), and instead made me concentrate on real business and adding value to the Islands of Hawaii. So I set the trading aside, and, fortunately, it “worked”, it worked enough that I can spend time on some trading. Buy and Hold has worked for people, but maybe this time it is different.

These guys describe the current markets as a “passive bid”, big dumb robots continuing to add money into the stock market. Currently the overall market as measured by the super Broad Vanguard ___________ fund are flat for over a year. Money is therefore going into specific sectors, for now. On a longer term view, the Boomers will start depleting their “savings” in the stock markets, say 4% per year on $1M or $40,000. But at the same time, we have Currency Debasement ongoing, and IMHO not likely to stop under Trump. Although, good point, cheap energy helps all prices to fall.
