No surprise there. Yes, valuations are high, but interest rates are low and the economy is growing.

The S&P 500 has been within 5% of its all-time high for 261 straight days. The last time it was more than 5% away was July 27, 2016. That lasted one day. So going back to March 2016, the S&P 500 has been within 5% of its all-time high for 332 out of 333 days.
This Bull shows no signs of losing steam. I'm still calling for a 5-10% drop before the end of the year.
Who cares?

Those of us who bought in when it was lower.
Earnings Scorecard: As of today (with 6% of the companies in the S&P 500 reporting actual results for Q2 2017), 80% of S&P 500 companies have beat the mean EPS estimate and 83% of S&P 500 companies have beat the mean sales estimate.
another all time high for the Sp500
This is starting to sound like a broken record.
Earnings Growth: For Q2 2017, the blended earnings growth rate for the S&P 500 is 6.8%. Nine sectors are reporting or are expected to report earnings growth for the quarter, led by the Energy sector.
2017 has been great so far. I've been taking some profits so that I'll have some dry powder for the inevitable dip. No rush though.
what % did you sell
thinking do the same
Not sure what percent since that wasn't my mind set. Just cashing in some winners.
i read sell losers & keep winners
😀
Earnings are being revised UPWARD! That's certainly another good reason for the market optimism.
True!
Earnings Revisions: On June 30, the estimated earnings growth rate for Q2 2017 was 6.6%. Five sectors have higher growth rates today (compared to June 30) due to upside earnings surprises, led by the Financials sector.
The CAPE ratio is backward looking and outdated the moment it is published. The markets are forward looking.
That is not correct, it is forward looking. Data going back to 1880 shows CAPE 10 ratios in excess of 30 have very poor forward returns. At the current level future ten year S&P 500 returns are in the range of 0-2% including dividends.
It's based on OLD data. Correlation is not causation. Sheesh.
