The Dow has been setting record highs for over a week now. You’d think the economy was booming or something. But as I’ve said before perhaps it is all just “funny money.”  Is it possible that even though inflation isn’t affecting the price of most commodities it is affecting the stock market? After all, if people are concerned about their future, rather than spending money they save it but if the banks aren’t paying enough interest to cover inflation perhaps you might consider putting it in a mutual fund?  That would drive up the price of stocks encouraging more people to choose mutual funds over banks. Hmmm.  In today’s article Eric Frye looks at the stock market in a very different way.
