What will be the catalyst? Just because we haven't had a recession in awhile is not enough. Corporate profits are up, consumer spending is up, and even though everyone on here thinks the numbers are lies, wages are starting to go up.

So you have already either shorted the market or bought put options out in 2019?

Market overvaluation and public debt are sky-high, it's an unsustainable situation, we either reign it in by controlled means (not gonna happen), or it's going to crash.

I'm not a huge investor, but I am preparing by reducing the proportion of US stocks in my portfolio.

How is market overvaluation calculated? And is public debt an absolute measure or is it relative to another indicator?
