Earnings are negative over the past year and the market was up nearly 30%.

Others have made great points about the Fed, but no one has mentioned the Bern Virus. Bernie taking the lead and probably winning Iowa on Monday night... that’s another big risk I haven’t seen mentioned.

Earnings growth was slower in the fourth quarter 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2019 (likely because of the tariffs) but earnings are still positive.

Big difference.
