Are we due for a market crash?

I think we are due for a crash. I wrote extensively on this subject in the past, and nothing has changed. The whole rally is driven by easy money and financial repression. Earnings have ground to a halt since 2012 confirms this. Now with recent PPI and CPI numbers coming in much higher than expected, it looks like inflation is making a comeback which might ultimately be the catalyst to bring stocks down. Small caps and tech have already begun to unwind.

Inflation is better for stocks than deflation.

Inflation likely to put pressure on rate rises.

However, as long as interest rates remain negative than BAU imo.


Having said that I think we need to come off the boil too as stocks have got well ahead of them selves and difficult to find value.

Don't see a crash but a decent pull-back is expected by quite a few.
 
I don't know what interest the US is paying on it's vast debt but if interest rates go up then it will likely be a lot more. Sheer incompetence of their political elite imho

Same to be said about Japan and many Western European economies, specially the UK.....
