Daily Readings
7/8/14:
Here are some of the articles I have read this morning and I
wanted to pass them on to you. Comment
below on how you feel about the articles I am always open for discussions. I am going to start to post lists of what I
have read and pass it along to you so that you don’t have to do all of the
research yourself.
Checkout the link of the first article right here:Say hello to U.S. economy's newest bubble
This first article is from Market Watch. The article is titled “Say hello to U.S.
economy’s newest bubble”. The author
states that the Dow is a whopping 155% above its low back in March 2009. He believes that the economy hasn't grown
near that much nor has corporate profits.
The author also shows his concerns for the market as this
bull market has managed to avoid a correction for 33 months far longer than average. The author supports the bull market by stating
that the stock market has continued its run by the lack of alternatives to
low-interest bonds and bills.
The second article for reading today is called “Dow 17,000
is on the wrong side of history” also on Market Watch.

The author states that the bull market isn’t directly with
recent economic growth but is being driven higher by wealth traders who have
unknowingly driven the market higher. The
Fed has helped drive the market higher by flooding the economy with money as the
fed balance sheet has quadrupled to $4.3 trillion since 2008.
The author finishes the article by comparing this bull
market with other bull markets in history.
You might notice that the trend for articles today is that
some people might be skeptical if we are nearing the end of the bull
market. The fed might increase interest
rates and slow the buying are both trends of the article so this is definitely an
important topic to understand and do research on. I would strongly encourage you to read these
articles and make assumptions for yourself.
