“Simply put: Where will the company earnings, buying power and credit come
from to support our ideas of normal in relation to index averages, asset prices
and GDP?”
This report articulates key aspects of my view pretty well. I read it as a good distillation of broad trajectories and challenges. I’d be interested if TPC or other readers find Steinberg’s analysis to be an over-simplification to the extent where it misses critical information?
I have read the Saut, Hussman, and Marketwatch ‘most dangerous month’ articles…SmartMoney next! Thanks for the excellent collection, TPC.
