Ye of little faith. Not only is sentiment irrelevent for stock to continue to rally, so are fundamentals, economic indicators, and actual investors themselves. As long as we have the Instituitions bidding up stocks amongst themselves via the Central Banks, there is no limit to how high stocks will go. Which is good. Since stock prices HAVE to go up forever and ever for our entire financial system to work.
