When the curve was flattening consensus was it’s bad for stocks. Now rates are rising consensus is that’s bad for stocks too.
What’s going on ....are we doomed no matter what?
Makes good headlines and all that stuff but the world just carries on
Best to ignore all this market noise ....esp the peripherall stuff and focus on profits
Focus on profits? A wise man once gave us this graph to ponder. If I am reading it correctly prices are getting ahead of profits. Possibly way ahead of profits, particularly in a recession if earnings decrease.
I don't know if the flattening yield curve was bad for stocks. It was more a possible indicator of a recession which is good for stocks because it will herald QE4.
yuk nasty , except for the utilities. those growth stocks are getting hammered
Quite happy about that myself. I shorted (for small amounts via a derivative product with Binck Bank) FB, AMZN, TSLA, and GOOG about 2 weeks ago and am going to let this ride for a bit. Think especially AMZN but the other too are over-extended. Time will tell as always.

Thanks, yes I am but it was for small amounts and there was no real science behind the timing or anything. Just well these stocks look like the PE is too high so lets take a position. Will be interesting to see how the NZ market reacts today to the drops on the Dow et al.
