Interesting SPX charts, thanks. I'm not a big fan of them going back a century because back then dividends were a much higher percentage of total returns. I'd much prefer a chart of dividend adjusted returns. I used to get some good data from the guy who does the CAP10 index returns. I'm tired and hungry so drawing a blank... he does the housing index and has the data on his website with a spreadsheet that adjusts for dividends and inflation. Well worth a look. Shiller! Here is a bullish SPX chart I like. It says PS's test of 2250 has left the stable but we could still see a nice, tradable decline to mint another small fortune... or just keep trucking higher as the fundamentals (trillions on sidelines that will look for return once the Fed starts to cut rates...) FWIW, the parasites of society... also known as politicians and those who put them in power, will need to raise a TON of money to pay down the debt or at least make it stop going up so they'll agree to raise taxes on themselves AFTER they position themselves into assets they can buy now to sell later at highly inflated prices. The permabears just can't figure this scam out... sad for them, good for me!
