I agree.. I suspect the bull is on its last legs so accumulation for all of us will likely slow from here.. Nobody really knows though.
I don't want to start another 'The top is in thread' :-), but I'm starting to hear more and more
good things about the economy. I'm hoping that because of the stagnate growth during the
Obama economy (although the stock market did great) that we will have a greatly extended
bull market.
The scariest thing is so many talking heads are positive on stock market growth, but I haven't seen 'irrational exuberance' yet! :-)
Some good economic news:
"On the day before Thanksgiving, a range of economic statistics from government and private sources show that the economy continues to have positive momentum heading into the year-end holiday spending season. Data on consumer sentiment, the labor market, and orders at the nations factories posted generally favorable results suggesting continued economic growth with a low risk of recession in coming months."
"The October jobs report released Friday shows a healthy job market, with the economy adding 261,000 jobs — good news after September's hurricanes. The unemployment rate is at 4.1 percent, its lowest in 17 years."
"Consumer sentiment hits 98.5 in November vs. 98 estimate
U.S. consumer sentiment gained more than expected from the mid-month reading.
Reuters economists expected the measure to hit 98.
The index reached more-than-a-decade highs in October survey results."
