G, >> They have enough productive capacity as a result of all this saving that far exceeds their own needs. << So why don't they just go on 30-hour work week. Play golf, and watch baseball games, spend more time with their families, etc.... I thought this was the goal of progress. To meet your needs with less effort. How can this be a problem ? Re interest rates, I thought everyone was re-assured today about the employment data. Now THIS was a relief rally, right !

Or they decide to flood the rest of Asia with capital - again. All the same; eventually the tide of money flowing into the US will reverse (it already has started) and US equities will come down to earth a bit. One reason that this is a "nifty fifty" market is because so mu h money has flowed in from overseas. Them thar foreigners are even worse than we are at picking up just the darlings to throw money at while ignoring the rest. I suspect that this trend won't change drastically for years. The good times are here - may hay while the sun shines but be prepared to sell within a few weeks.
