Equities Rise Should Continue……
“Davidson” submits:
Economic data and equity markets are highly correlated over time. The correlation is not day-to-day or even month-to-month as the media attempts to connect the dots on a daily basis, but over several years the connections become apparent. Along the way, there are many using market trends to predict the trend of the economy and the next few months, even days, of market prices.
“Davidson” submits:
Equity prices have a long history of rising on positive surprises. Many believe markets to be an ‘efficient’ pricing mechanism of all that is known and unknown. If they believe this, then it is surprising that they are willing to pay more for unexpected positive news.
