Now that the major issues in Europe are gone and the recovery in the US is steadying…..the real issue is coming to the fore.
A few person knows that this rally has been created by the Reserve banks.
Now trhe Central Banks (at least the FED and the ECB) are starting to discuss how to unwind this stimulus.
From the start of the year the Reserve Banks bought USD1 Trillion of sharers (for example the Reserve Bank of Switzerland alone bought 4 million Apple shares -USD580 million (Fond Swiss national Bank) and in 2016 the Bank of japan was the top buyer of Japanese shares with USD35 Billion (Font Tokyo Stock Exchange ).
To clarify
And this is just one Reserve bank.
Try to unwind that without damaging the market!
Please note on the last picture how every crisis post 2008, correspond in a stop from the Reserve bank purchasing pattern (2012, 2014 and 2016)
