>You're obviously not as rich or intelligent as me, so I don't really care what you think. The market is going up because smart people like me are making money hand over fist while idiots like you sit on the sidelines and whine. Inflation isn't a problem for people with real money - we just buy more stuff and watch our wealth grow even faster. As for the Fed, they're always there to prop up the system when things get too volatile - that's why it's called the "central bank". Sooner or later they'll start printing money again and everyone else will suffer while we just keep getting richer.
