GZ, I think there's a few of us that are seeing evidence of a looming market correction. This is on my shortlist:

-Inflation is high
--don't believe the CPI, it doesn't include the rapidly increasing price of rent. An entire generation of millennials is renting and they are struggling.

-Bond market is starting to show risk
--10-yr bonds are showing likelihood of a rate increase soon (bond prices have been dropping).


-VIX is low...too low.
--People are assuming very low risk, unusually low with the uncertainty in Europe, in the U.S. (especially tech stocks like Uber), China, Middle Easy...this list can keep going.

-S&P 500 near an all-time high.
--Unusual since we are in the middle of a global slowdown, there's a prospect of a rate hike and the most worrying election season we have ever had.

-2016 Elections
--This is a messy election season. I don't want to get into politics here, but I am worried for our future. We have to choose between an inexperienced narcissist who has managed to alienate almost every minority in the U.S., and a corrupt politician who is implicated in numerous scandals, and has a trigger happy finger. As a public we have grown accustomed to poor choices for our presidential candidates, but this is deplorable. The next 2 months will further erode confidence in our government and our economy.

I strongly believe we should start purchasing some inverse ETF's. Is there a way we can make a list for the best ones on this board?
