Because corporations are multi-national, and lots of their profits come from overseas. At least that is true of many if not most of the SP500 stocks. The dollar weakening actually helps profits in this scenario.Quote from Bogan7:
Guys,
What is going on with the market that I am missing? The housing sector (a massive part of your economy) is in free fall, corp earnings are soft, the dollar is weak inflation on the rise and the market refuses to go down!!!
I'd love some opinons on why, is there just too much cash still in the system, are the asians and europeans still buying or is it something else (any conspiracy theories out there)
Cheers
lol Yea right. Remain in disbelief, while others pick up the easy risk free $$$ on the long side.Quote from kashirin:
because economic problems are huge. country already might be in recession
stock market is supported by multinational companies and depreciating dollar
although sooner or later FED will be forced to hike rates to double digits in the middle of recession
