Crash 'Risk' Is Soaring: "This Is Where They Lost Their Minds"

I don't believe it. Its going nowhere but up. I'm getting to take all my bank accounts, money market funds, and 401 K funds and put 100% in equities. I'll be retiring in a couple of years and I am going to max out.

Good for you.
I agree.

There is no evidence at all that the Fed is ready to allow a correction in the well managed markets.
COMEX is rigged and completely in check.
LIBOR is rigged and completely in check.
US Bonds are rigged and completely in check.

Pile into stocks like there will be no more tomorrows!
