why is a steady grinding price advance with many Overnight equity index futures price action strong since December a parabolic, and why is the current state lasting weeks in which the /ES futures are trading at a PREMIUM to the $SPX cash a parabolic characteristic?
it seems like a simple and steady price uptrend to me ... is simplicity a difficult experience to embrace and believe?
Someone believes in the future of earnings growth and economic growth for a period of time lasting into at least 2020, and why is that not easily recognized and believed?

Subject: Re: Sam Stovall in CFRA webinar today
a lot of statistics for the different regions of the world, that Sam showed on one slide, and in his discussion ... he stated there are NO signs of recession coming in any of these regions during 2020 based on both the IMF forecast and his forecast ...
looking at the stats he shows better earnings growth in Emerging Markets for 2020 than in the US stock market using the S&P 500 stocks ... he also showed a separate slide presenting the Emerging Markets compared to the S&P 500 and that the Emerging are under performing at the lower BB location , which to him means it is nearly 100% that the ratio will improve to the upside and Emerging will do better in 2020

Sam says 45% of the total revenue for the 500 companies in the S&P come from oversees, so the tariff situation was responsible during 2019 for NOT meeting Sam's expectations for company earnings growth in 2019

Sam Stovall says
we are now underestimating company earnings growth and the US GDP growth, and those items will positively surprise in 2020 vs. current expectations ...
so stock prices are telling us the expected 2020 outcome at this time in the 4th Qtr 2019 since prices lead the fundamentals before the fundy's improve
stock up trends do not die of old age, they die of fright - fear of recession is the cause
4th year of Presidential cycle is 84% of the time positive ... normally up 6.4% in 4th year
