FAANG STOCKS ARE NOW WORTH $4,1 TRILLION










https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-07-19/tech-alert-warning-signs-are-very-pronounced


Indeed crazy, FAANG stocks are now worth $4,1 Trillion and the 4th largest economy in the world. And their combined market capitalization increased by $260 billion in the past 11 days and by $812 billion since the start of 2018.
But what is not mentioned here, it all comes from share buyback programs ever since the FED stoped its QE programs in 2015. This money comes mostly from Off-Shore places were it was hoarded during the past 10 years to avoid taxes. And now they make full use of the tax cut in the US (from 35% down to 15%) and returns to on-shore markets. But don't you worry, it's not illegal, it's only tax optimized. 😁 And whoever believes the US economy will benefit from it, will be proven wrong. This money is only used to be reiinvested  in its  companies to raise stock prices in the interest of investors only, following the so-called shareholder value philosophy ever since 1996. And the ascellerating speed is breathtaking and a clear sign that the end of the cycle is near.
So once again, make sure all of your positions are defended while participating in equity markets!!!
