The markets are a conundrum.
Keep waiting for the bubble, keeps going up.
Defying conventional wisdom.
I am wondering whether to bet big on it for 2026.

The market value is largely made up of a few big "tech" companies

A market in awe of Big Tech is not concerned about the political independence of the Fed if it results in a zero interest rate policy.
Cheap money is more important to big tech than the health of the bond market.
When interest rates are high, speculative bets—ie Big Tech companies (who argue that scale matters more than cash flow)—are much harder to sustain.
So far there has been little scrutiny of their long term worth

Stay on the sidelines and keep losing. My portfolio is killing it!

I am not on the sidelines at all.
Talking about extra investment
