Hi John: FWIW John as you know I was around trading in 1987 and before. I don't know if I'm in the majority or minority. Even though I'm just an individual stock picker. I don't trade indexes or EFT's. I personally don't feel the irrational exuberance in these current conditions as in 87. Some conditions, I've been seeing, corrections on earnings misses. IPO 's that are also not going through the roof. I also don't see enough signs to warrant a US recession. Poor world growth with poor outlook conditions currently. So near term, I don't feel US equities are overpriced. Consequently IMO I see US debt instruments being unattractive near term. I'm also in the camp tax cuts both corporate & personal will drive major growth going forward. A big If, but if, a plan such as this gets passed and put in place. Especially with current low rates, in unison with tax cuts. I see the US markets taking initial pause, but actually rising on gradually rising interest rates. This as market are content with rising corporate profits and increasing GDP growth. However as rates rise due to tax cuts. I see fast rising interest rates making debt instruments and the long depressed financial sector attractive.

P.S. JMO- I know what I feel and what actually happens, might just be a pipe dream, but hey, I want to see America succeed and thrive. Also considering Brexit. It was an eye opener to see Softbank buy ARM for 32 billion. I also see China still wanting to buy US companies. Deals they can get by the FTC.
