Not really. I have been in and out of AMZN LEAP puts twice, for example, and have tripled my money there, and my trading account, which consists entirely of bearish positions, is up 25% for the year.
Despite the rise in all the market indices.

Of course, today was a bad day for that account and so may tomorrow and the next day after that.

But almost all U.S. stocks, and especially the tech/internets, are terribly overpriced.

Back in the early 1980s I finally gave up trying to persuade friends to get into the stock market because I was getting a reputation for being crazy. After some years people surmised I must be making a lot of money when for several years I only worked four months out of the year, and that did not win friends either.

I have quit saying anything aloud about the market among people I work with or am friends with, because when I say I think there's a huge decline ahead they react as if I had told them they had some awful disease. I figured that SI was a proper forum for such ideas.
