You can't "bet against the stock market" w/this kind of credit creation/expansion & QE reimagined. You have the US treasury & fed working to make bond yields come down & debt/credit cheaper, "the lifeblood of markets" . Not to mention the
$3.55 trillion the Treasury has borrowed/issued out in the last 12 months & corporate debt issuance as well has increased by
$1.7 trillion or 27% YoY increase. M2 has increased by 5.4%+ so far.
$1.68T of corporate bond issuance + rapidly rising M2 — are companies actually creating a huge amount of debt/liquidity ?
