Think we're on the way to seeing a major correction. PBC and others I'm subscribed to (not selling anything) have for the past few days suggesting / indicating we're about to see a major correction in US stock markets and then spreading.

stock market crash
"Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark Twain -
Maybe. Every day, some pundit or other calls the top of the market and crash is just around the corner. Almost always they are wrong, but once every decade someone says it just before the correction (or crash as every dip is called these days).
If you've got equities and you believe the latest doom sayer, sell up. You can always buy them up again later for a pittance and pocket a small fortune. -

Let's face it, it was a cert as soon as Donald Trump was elected. Lot's of people in high places were just waiting for a patsy to be left holding the baby and he's perfect. Just look at the Fed tightening schedule if you don't believe me.
