Having been in the stock market for 5+ years now, it is unbelievably clear that the ” condition of the economy” isn’t based in reality. The News has recently been shouting that the Economy is on an aggressive recovery. Obviously, nothing could be further from the truth. Basically, the stock market conitnues to go up because of the lies the MSM spoonfeeds everyone. Know this, the majority of investment bankers and hedge fund controllers are completely clueless about what’s going on. However, many know the truth. (My cousin, who works at a hedge-fund inside HSBC.) All of this happens while the global economy is intrinsically “bleeding out”. The real American government has no money. QE was the latest mechanism to keep the economy going. Once the risidual effects from it fade, we will probably then see the collapse.
