Quote from Debaser82:
Well, determining when an asset class has reached mania levels is obviously quite tricky and I am too young to have lived trough one of the big bubbles of the past to compare.
I once read how during the peak of the Nasdaq bubble hair salons had televisions in them playing CNBC 24/7 so people would never lose track on their portfollio.
Are we there yet, I don't know and I don't think so but I could be wrong.![]()
I worked in the biz through the tech bubble, and all you really need to know is that the pervasive sentiment is "it will never go down again" or " its a new paradigm".
Does that apply to GC right here and now? Yes. Can it go higher? Of course.
