In 2019, almost every investment worked

CNBC:

  • The S&P 500 is up more than 25% and counting. Treasurys also soared in 2019. Oil, gold and corporate bonds all scored double-digit returns.
  • Only 64 names in the S&P 500, or 12%, are in the red this year. All 11 S&P 500 sectors are entering the homestretch of 2019 with positive returns.
  • “What a year for the stock market,” says Matthew Maley, chief market strategist at Miller Tabak. “One reason why the consensus believes the stock market can hold up next year has to do with the belief that interest rates will remain low.”

  1. Central Bank, Central Government, Central Intelligence. Hmmm, I’m sensing a theme here.

    The new Axis of Evil has become even more powerful than ever. Tune in next year to see if there will ever be criminal charges against ANYONE for ANYTHING.

    Central Bank – stealing your money by inflation, causing huge bubbles and catastrophic depressions.

    Central Government – stealing your freedom, even of thought.

    Central Intelligence – watching your every move, waiting for the right moment to strike.

    From Network: “I’m mad as hell, and I’m not going to take it anymore!”

  2. Back the start date out to 1/1/2018 and most buy and hold investors have realized a rather unimpressive 2 years. 8% on S&P (with most of that in just the past few weeks), 0% on oil, 12% gold…. Most asset classes under 10%.
