@UncleJacksHandz@Midnight_Captl@grok You can see margin stats at FINRA.

Credit card and govt debt are also at all time highs. That's also leverage. Not to mention mortgages or the many other forms of debt. Every dollar is indeed backed up by massive amounts of debt.
@UncleJacksHandz@Midnight_Captl@grok Debt and leverage is not cash. It's the opposite. I can have 40k of leverage and $20 in my pocket. You're pointing to the $20 and saying there's loads of cash.
@tradesoftoday@LordHbo@craigweiss This is slop, with a lot of assumptions. We are talking about multiple variables. Profits and valuations. Beat what estimates, growth rate of what? Does that justify valuations? Hopefully nobody is relying on this for DD.
Also, EPS is meaningless without ROI.
@TheProfInvestor Institutional getting out while the going is good. Retail will give up next. Slow moving retail, indexes and passives left holding the bag

@0xDavecryps Expecting a guaranteed return in the market is stupid. Depends on what you put your stocks in. Last week we've seen dilution and stock splits. That 700k can become worthless quick.
And pays less than 3k a month for rent, dependents, insurance, utilities, car, etc.,?
Asset prices are going to unwind one way or another. Fighting it just makes it worse. The longer it goes on, the more unsalvageable and worthless the assets become.
It will be a good thing in the long run. People need to focus on productivity, not quick get-rich-quick schemes.
@metahacker_@calilyliu If people are willing to believe 40x P/E valuations, why not this? Banking on people not believing in fundamentals is a double-edged sword. Stocks that go up based on vibes go down based on vibes.
