Weekend Link Love: The coming market correction edition

May 11th, 2013 | 7 Comments

This weekend link love is brought to you by the upcoming market correction.  That’s right, you heard it here first – there will be a market correction.  Right now, stocks are crazy overvalued.  Either company’s fundamentals (earnings, dividends, etc) will have to rise to justify the increased stock prices OR the stock prices will have to drop to align with the fundamentals.  I don’t know when this correction will happen, maybe this week, maybe this month, or maybe this year.  But it’ll happen eventually.  Until then, go check out the following links of awesome.

First some blog news:

    I think the market is currently overvalued too and is due for a correction. Europe is still in a recession and Asia’s growth is slowing down. I don’t see the catalyst for further p/e expansion. I’m considering selling some stocks now so that when the market dips in the future I can get in again at lower prices :) Thanks for the mention.

    Thanks for including my series! I agree, stocks are crazy overvalued right now, I personally thought we’d see a correction by now but only time will tell.

    Thanks for the mention. I think there is so much money going into stocks right now because it is pretty much the only place to make any money right now. If Treasuries went any lower, we would be paying the Fed interest instead, China is slowing, and Europe is slowly imploding on itself.

    I don’t think stocks are overvalued just because they have been on a roll for several months. When you look at the 2007 average P/E ratio and dividend yield, today’s market is trading at a lower P/E ratio and pays a higher yield. Not to mention that interest rates are lower than they were back in 2007.

    I’m still buying :-)

    It will be interesting to see whether a market correction occurs sooner or later. Regardless, it will be here eventually!
