This is just me thinking out loud…
First; a couple corrections:
*I say “fair value” (should’ve said “fairly valued” or “trading at the historical p/e”) when referring to the market of March 2009… “Fair value” on Wall Street refers to the equilibrium value of a futures contract…
*When referring to the $5 trillion additional national debt, I say “that’s how much the debt has gone up this year”… Meant to say “the past three years”…
Also: If the employment trend of the past couple of months continues (this morning’s number was substantially better than anticipated), the threat of QE3 (unless Europe implodes) abates considerably…
