C'mon Greg! The performance of the NASDAQ, S&P, DOW et al have nothing to do with how bad or good the 'boots on the ground' economy is doing. Those charts you showed tell us that all the capital from the 4 corners of the world is flowing into US equities. Why? Because capital gets scared and takes flight to safety. This is not going to change any time in the near future. Case in point; I guarantee Mannarino is still in US equities. When the reset happens, many gold bugs are going to be sorely disappointed.
