Why Won't the Markets Fall?

Perception of the economy is likely more important than market manipulation. When the idea that "things are bad" takes hold more fully -- I don't see how the FED can keep stock prices elevated if people want to flee -- just like it cannot make people borrow -- even with low rates.

Market perception is well managed and few people subscribe to Shadowstats.

I think the trend will be deflationary forces prevailing for assets -- inflationary forces prevailing for food-energy-metals-etc.
