Many would agree that it’s great that the market has been steadily going up for years now. I would be one of those people if the improvement of the market was natural. Without getting too technical, the economy has been artificially stimulated for years now. The Federal Reserve has printed an unprecedented amount of money [trillions of dollars] to stimulate the economy.
In fact, the Federal Reserve has been printing billions of dollars every single month. The good news is that Federal Reserve is starting to taper their printing and have cut it down from $85B/month ($1T/year) to $65B/month ($780B/year). Seven hundred and eighty BILLION ($780B) per year is still an enormous amount of money. How will the economy react after the printing has completely stopped?
I’m not cynical nor am I a doomsday sayer. I’m simply stating the facts. Cutting off the printing press is a good thing but will the market and the economy continue to hit record highs after the printing has stopped? How about two years after the printing has stopped will the market continue to march up? I believe it’s important for us not to forget The 401K Fallout (see video below).

The market tanked in the year 2000 due to the “dot-com bubble” and again in the year 2007 primarily due to the “mortgage meltdown”. Our economy has since recovered, however, is it possible that another collapse is just around the corner and are you ready…just in case? Are you invested properly in the event a correction happens again? NOW is a great time to analyze your investment strategy.
