Stock Market Rally, Asset Bubbles & Crash

“For the next year or so, as long as the economy grows 1.5-2 percent, and you have easy money, this market can go higher. Growth is slow. Earnings growth is also slowing down. Top line and bottom line are not as good as they used to be, but margins are high. They could correct, somehow, over time. This might lead to a generalized credit and equity and asset bubble in the next year or two, followed by a crash.” - in CNN Money

Market Outlook: Gravitational Forces & Levitational Forces

"It could go on for another year or two. Of course, there are two forces. Growth is slow. Earnings growth is also slowing down. Top line and bottom line are not as good as they used to be, but margins are high. They could correct, somehow, over time.

But you have the gravitational forces of slow economy leading eventually to correction, but then the levitational forces of QEs, zero policy rates, more money coming in the market – not just from the U.S., but from other economies – it's going to levitate asset prices.

So, as I pointed out, this might lead to a generalized credit and equity and asset bubble in the next year or two, followed by a crash. But for the next year or so, as long as the economy grows 1.5-2 percent, and you have easy money, this market can go higher. "- in Business Insider

The Ongoing Weakness of America’s Economy

"The ongoing weakness of America’s economy—where deleveraging in the private and public sectors continues apace—has led to stubbornly high unemployment and sub-par growth. The effects of fiscal austerity—a sharp rise in taxes and a sharp fall in government spending since the beginning of the year—are undermining economic performance even more." - in Live Mint

The Exit From The Fed's QE And Zero-Interest-Rate Policies Will Be Treacherous

"The exit from the Fed's QE and zero-interest-rate policies will be treacherous: Exiting too fast will crash the real economy, while exiting too slowly will first create a huge bubble and then crash the financial system. If the exit cannot be navigated successfully, a dovish Fed is more likely to blow bubbles." - in CNBC

Fed's Liquidity Injections Are Not Creating Credit For The Real Economy

"The problem is that the Fed's liquidity injections are not creating credit for the real economy, but rather boosting leverage and risk-taking in financial markets. The issuance of risky junk bonds under loose covenants and with excessively low interest rates is increasing; the stock market is reaching new highs, despite the growth slowdown; and money is flowing to high-yielding emerging markets." - in CNBC

Central Banks Are Worried About Downside Risks To Economic Growth

“The reason why central banks keep on printing money is because they worry about downside risk to economic growth. But if liquidity spreads because of the downside risk to global economic growth and if the downside risk actually materialises, in spite of liquidity, then you could, over time, have a correction in global equities.” - in First Post

India: Bureaucratic Constraints, Political Uncertainty

"China might have too much infrastructure, but India has too little infrastructure spend and a whole range of bureaucratic constraints has slowed down the investment. There's also some degree of political uncertainty with the general elections next year. Corruption, meanwhile, was also a significant hindrance. Unfortunately there have been excessive levels of corruption. Red tape, a wide range of administrative restrictions and regulations on the economy, are not enhancing business confidence." - in The National
