How you see the current economy may depend on one's particular ideology. If you are threatened with losing your tax cut next year, then you're likely to see the current economy as doing very poorly. And for those people, that justifies keeping those tax cuts in place because they believe tax cuts for the rich will cause economic growth.

In addition, its easier to be negative these days.........after 8 years of bad economics and bad governance, I believe Americans are in a funk......not unlike a severe hangover.

Many confuse the current main stock market drivers of expanding corporate profit margins, easy cheap access to capital available to larger public co's and expanding multiples to cash flow in a low rate environment with the gloomy feeling all around us in the real world..well things weren't too good the early 1990's either which also had tight credit, high unemployment and falling home prices in many areas yet the stock market was star

Just need to create a booming economy with high interest rates, high inflation, full participation again from the retail investor and rising wages with shrinking profit margins more than offsetting topline growth....the stock market probably crashes in anticipation of that event finally satisfying the perma bears...
