'So you think the economy IS the stock market?'

No, whatever gave you that idea....I probably believe that even less than most of you here. Most of this board though in the age of Obama has been all about placing bearish bets cause the economy sucks.. KISS says values of any business are all about projected cash flows and the cost of capital of public companies discounted to the present.. It does help that the stock market averages stay closer to decade highs than decade low, that corporate balance sheets are in real good shape, corporate profits are at record levels and interest rates at record lows for a host of indirect reasons given everything else going on these days not the least of which is continued deleveraging..
