Good point. Lots of money chasing stocks for at least two reasons:
(1) the Fed had been expanding the money supply for quite a while
(2) when Asia got into trouble, the US was seen as a safe haven because it had a stable government and a good economy

I dont see much devation in our posts.....Yours is far more eloquent, but the message is the same. Capital chases growth, but the price of growth surpassed every conceivable metric. Reality is the ultimate paradigm, and once the paradigm of limitless growth (aka "perfection") was exposed as a fraud then a reevaluation of stock prices was in order.

At that time they invented the word "Valuations", very soon they will find some other word to justify the purchase of their favorite stock. At that time some one on CNBC or some where said "Its new economy, stupid" and every one all over the place started saying the same thing. Now the word is "Capitulation" and you hear 50 times a day.
