So many sources and heads are predicting it that I feel it's almost to the point of being a self-fulfilling prophecy.
I've set all my stop-loss orders a few percent tighter and we'll be glad to contribute to the cascade. |

Quoted:
US dollar has been rapidly loosing value since April.....most people didn't pay attention. 15% drop in value. What also people don't realize is that the rise in stock prices is actually due to weakening US economy and thus USD. Weakening US dollar is good for US corporations with global footprint, makes their profits go up due to currency exchange effect. Fudds on the other hand think it's because economy is doing so well, hah. View Quote Only for my curiosity.. are you Forex trader? |

It's very technical. We need someone dressed in a white lab coat to explain it all.

Well.. there's quite a few hedge funds that got burned by assuming that US Dollars were inversely related to equities and took up positions to reflect that belief. If you've been in the game long enough, you know that the relationship between USD and equities can cycle between inverse and positively correlated. Only for my curiosity.. are you Forex trader?

Meh.
I was in a meeting with some big investors last week. They said that were in the second longest bull market in US history & that there was going to be a correction eventually. 10% ish in the next 2-3 years. So, yeah, corrections come. It's a part of the market. |

market is overbought. i dont know what the definition of correction is so i cant say for sure. but i expect the market to fall. i dont expect something like 2007 2008 unless there is some significant bubble like the housing/real estate/mortgage of the last correction or the hugely overpriced NASDAQ before the dotcom meltdown. but its coming. all bets are off though if something crazy happens, something with trump or something with NK. big boys are poised for the shorts simply waiting for the signal when all prisoners will be released. though im in IT i built houses on the side right up to the crash and was blessed as i sold my last house for little or no profit, but no loss while every other developer in the subdivision got hung, some to rent out what they had and some to go bankrupt. as a consequence ive sort of kept up with the local market. several things this time around, banks are less willing to lend, there is a shortage of available lots and the prices of new and existing homes has increased dramatically in my area. so im seeing this same trend. and thats a datapoint, not something to trigger a drop in the market in and of itself. btw, someone said a 10 percent drop was a correction. i would welcome a 10 percent drop. i'd rather let a little air out now than a rout later on. and i have a ton of cash sitting on the side. |

Isn't that punishment enough for all they went through last time??? View Quote I understand the ups and downs of the market cycles and all the rest of that, but there's something seriously wrong when the masters on Wall Street can simply destroy a couple billions dollars overnight, shrug their shoulders and say "oops", and cash a 50 million dollar bonus for their efforts. |

There will be a huge correction.
I know what I am talking about. I have successfully predicted 37 of the last 2 collapses. |

There's an ironic disconnect with this post and username. The very fact that there hasn't been a correction is an indication that one is due. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes |

Doubt it. We haven't had a a major correction in almost 10 years, why would we suddenly have one now? View Quote So either the corrections have already occurred, or we're really, really overdue for a big one. |
