The stock market is now the most ever overvalued in the entire history, with all major stocks and indices being at very high peaks:
From our experience, markets like this will go DOWN and DOWN, as such peaks are not sustainable.
There are heavy signs that we are so close to a new Stock Market Crash,also a lot of experts claim that a market crash is imminent.
The vast majority of indices, like Dow Jones, NASDAQ, S&P500 already started to sink, which led experts to claim that the stock market has peaked and started to draw similarities to the 2008 financial crash.
The growing bubble
Stocks, bonds and even real estate assets are markets in bubbles that will be most affected if a market crash will happen.A even more concerning evidence is the growing volatility seen in Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq or the S&P500 with expectations that it could get worse in the near future.
We already know that everything that goes UP must go down, but even so some belive that a stock market crash is not likely, and that the small dip will soon recover.
