For the past 3 to 4 months, I keep on hearing that we are in a bubble with the stock market and yet it just keeps going up and up. Bonds are rising, inflation is rising, half of americas dont have more then $2500 to cover emergency expenses. Massive jobs cuts and outsourcing from big companies. Oil prices and war with Iran. Dot com stocks like Intel, Cisco are almost 100%-200% up in a month. Tarrifs and what not. If this was pre covid I believe S&P 500 will be down 25% due to all these factors. It feels like a different era of investing.

    Are people just exaggerating? Or we will really have a pop soon?

    I keep hearing that we are in a bubble. When will it pop or correct ?

      Bubbles can stay irrational longer than anyone expects, the timing is basically impossible to call. What matters more is your own positioning… are you sized in a way you can hold through a 20-30% drawdown without panic selling? that you should be asking

    2. maybe monday, maybe in a year.. maybe it goes up 30% to the dramatically crash 20%

      Every 6 months “feels different” back to before COVID.

      The world shut down for a year and we came out fine.

      It’ll be alright.

      My funny answer: I plan on buying on June 1st so probably June 2nd.

      Real answer: I think this market has shown this decade that any “downturn” is quickly followed up with a recovery and gains. So just either tax lost harvest and reinvest. Or ride out the bullshit and you’ll be in the positive again before you know it

      it is not in the interest of any of the big players to let the bubble pop (doing so would weaken all of them), and so it will not pop.

      You’ve heard of too big to fail. Now it is too conspired to fail.

    6. Maybe? Last time when cisco hit its all time high the dotcom bubble popped. That was at 200pe or something? Now cisco is at 39. Still some ways to go

    7. Nobody knows could be tomorrow could be next year, could be no bubble at all

    8. No one will know before the poping if there even is any poping!

      You will have to adopt to any current market to make investments.

      Where are you hearing this from?

      Since random Redditor saying it is meaningless. Especially since most don’t even understand what a bubble is. 

    10. I have been hearing this for the last 6 years. Michael Burry and a few others are beating this drum all the time. Meanwhile, markets have gone up considerably. Consistent DCA buying strategy, using stop losses and cycling a portion of your money out when stocks reach new highs is the way through this.

      When the liquidity dries up, the debts get called and the buying power dries up.

    12. Headline job cuts aren’t showing up in actual employment numbers. We are still close to full employment according to the data. Immigration is basically nonexistent now so we simply don’t need to create as nearly jobs as we did in the past. Nothing new about people struggling. The bottom half of of this country has been hurting for decades. Finally, inflation and Iran will resolve one way or another in the long run, which is the way the market looks at things.

    13. people have been calling this bubble since 2022 and the ones who sat out waiting for the pop missed 40%+ gains.. the market can stay irrational longer than any of us can stay in cash
