Watching this market’s wheels come off in the midst of historic euphoria is the craziest thing since 1999.
But at least in 1999 we weren’t in the midst of a pandemic, historic GDP contraction and record unemployment numbers.
Here we are though, at all-time highs for the Nasdaq and the S&P 500 that remains in the green so far for 2020.
The takeaway from all of this, is that anytime we have a recession, simply ask the Federal Reserve to hit the fast forward button to the year that no one could possibly know whether the economy will be better or worse, by pretending it will certainly be better.
