Yes. Investors are optimistic. The current level of exuberance, and the willingness by
individuals to shun risk for the
hopes of chasing wealth brought to mind Bob Farrell’s 10-Investment Rules. Particularly “Rule #9.”
As I noted this past weekend, 2017 was a year for the record books. Not
surprisingly, the strong advance fostered a surge in
investor optimism which pushed allocations to equities to the second
highest level on record.
And
leveraged to boot.
Importantly, don’t mistake
record margin debt levels as people borrowing against their portfolio just to
make larger investment bets. In reality, they are using leverage to support their lifestyle as well, after all, as
long as stocks keep rising it’s like “free
money.” Right?
This is shown in both the level
of debt used to support the standard of living and the relationship between
real, inflation-adjusted, margin debt and economic growth.
Yes.
Investors are optimistic.
The
current level of exuberance, and the willingness by individuals to shun risk
for the hopes of chasing wealth brought to mind Bob Farrell’s 10-Investment Rules.
Particularly “Rule #9.”
I have penned these
previously, but these rules should be a staple for
any investor who has put their hard earned “savings” at risk
in the market. These rules, which are rarely heeded in the heat of bull market,
are worth revisiting as we enter into 2018.

2017 was not a good year for Byron Wien's traditional list of
economic, financial political "surprise" forecasts, so let's see if 2018 will be any better.
