Economy crash =/= stock market crash?

Straight forward video which is similar to what I've tried to post in chart form recently. It can go anywhere really between a P/E of 20 and 10. Just the same as buying individual shares which might even go to P/E 30 in a growth phase.

Good post, as usual. If I can add to it, the video does explain (and Pensioncraft have been saying for a while) how P/E (or CAPE) valuations falling back to longer term average accounts for the drop in the first half of this year (the removal of positive sentiment mentioned by others). But that's only half the story because it assumes earnings will hold up.

That's the great unknown at the moment. The fed wants to ensure earnings don't rise (=embedded inflation), and their actions to prevent that may cause earnings to fall, in which case for the P/E to remain, if not pessimistic, then at least less ebullient, stock prices will have to fall. This is the second half fall that leads to commentators suggesting we are only half way. Such a fall would be quite reasonable and far from a disaster scenario that a few interesting people are suggesting of course!

And it might well be that when this happens (=inflation under control) the fed loosens a bit, raising P/E and countering the fall in earnings meaning we don't have the second half dip, or not for as long.

Sell the FTSE 100 at 7040 . Right or wrong there's plenty more to go at.

Just a little update not that anybody will be really bothered . Never mind I was asked so I'll highlight my system. Looking at the link which is not the best package the Slow Stochastic curled upwards as I explained around 6850-6900 to buy. Today we sit on the top of overbought region at 7110. Sell at 7110. Not perfect and could still go higher but 7040 down to 6900 and up again to 7110 is around 350 points.

That political definition was already known since Middle of June 2022. Which president / government want to be remembered as the party who takes the Country into recession ??

A recession is two consecutive quarters of negative growth. That has been the definition of recession for decades.
