    4 months ago everyone was selling at s&p 5000, people couldn't get out quick enough and here we are today, people literally tripping over each other to buy stocks hundreds of percent higher than they were just weeks ago...

    All bubbles pop eventually.

    This bubble is very different. There’s so many big cap stocks that have done very poorly in non tech . They’ve had terrible earnings and when 7 stocks are 35% of a $55 trillion mkt that is a mania

  4. Yeah except every dip keeps getting bought. Hard to pop or be a bubble when the price doesn’t matter and it trades the same every day. Refuses to go down no matter what. Even if it fell sharply tomorrow they would gobble up the dip faster than you could react so there really is no risk.
     
  5. Bubbles are overrated. Everyone acts like the world is melting and it's armageddon when bubbles happen...but just a short while later... the market is calmly rising back to the heavens, slowly but surely. Guaranteed.

    A 25 year chart of the nasdaq and/or the S&P certainly proves your point. That said.... plenty of folks wiped out their accounts along the way. I'll let you figure out how that happens. For now, lets just enjoy the ride.

    6 red years out of 25 years


    76% of the last 25 years have been green

    Would be interesting to see this chart 1 year from now.



    I usually take the qqq or ndx 100, throw a max chart up and just notice how parabolic it has risen the last few years. Literally one straight line up to the bluest of blue skies...
