“How Long Will Financial Assets March Higher?” BofAML Has A Simple Answer
I've got a question for you on Sunday. Here it is: are you someone who thinks the best answer is usually the simplest one?
And I've got a follow-up: are you someone who likes tautological reasoning?
Well, if you answered "yes" to both of those questions, then you will love BofAML's answer to the question implicit in their weekly note on buy-side positioning. Here is that implicit question:
How long will financial assets continue to march higher?
And here is their explicit answer:
Institutions
Ask them that question and you are likely to get the same question in reply.
‘I dunno, when are you gonna stop buying?’ Wink wink, nudge nudge. First one off the ride wins.

Because the $$$$ junkies are fully hooked and the dupes are now engaged there is no reason to stop the lunacy as those same dupes are willingly led to their own destruction. “Swimming with the sharks” from the recent past is all but forgotten and the “big boys” have already hit or are in the process of hitting the eject button. Quite a scam, print $$$$$’s prop up markets with said $$$$’s, lure in the dupes, blame everyone else for the dupes misfortune and “wall-la”. Boom, right between the ‘ole’ wallet.
