", but I'm not smart enough to assign specific values to each fundamental component and then crunch the numbers to see whether these markets are a buy or not, I'll leave that to the experts and professionals who can do a much better job on that..." More like you have more integrity than the meth monkeys running the markets. Discerning how the market will likely respond to fundamentals is a fool's errand, at least in the short term.

<<< hope my response was helpful >>> Yes GZ, it was. I think the practical answer revolves more towards what ones intentions in the market are. You are a trader simply looking for direction. I am looking for credible investments and the occaisonal trade. I've heard the phrase "new normal" to describe this market and for the life of me I can't seem to figure that one out yet. In the meantime I'm leaving my holdings in cash, farmland and cattle....lol. In a way it's funny how it all comes together and goes hand in hand. I now watch cattle futures which are dictated by the size of the herd and economic demand for beef. The higher the commodities go, the stronger the land values....it all plays together. Should be an interesting couple of years. Just my thoughts
