[Outsider Club logo] We Already Paid For This Rally [Adam English Photo] By [Adam English]( Written Nov. 19, 2019 All-new highs are being hit and investors are chasing it by flooding money back into the market. But the simple reality cannot be denied: We already paid a hefty premium for this uptick when it was baked into stock prices, and chasing it further without much to base it on will backfire. We’re coasting on short-term hope, buying the same lines that we did a year ago — or two — for why to double down. This lack of memory and short-sightedness is likely to set up a major disappointment for broad market investments while propelling safe havens to new highs next year. We simply have to face facts: Stocks are too expensive and the catalyst for this upward trend is reliance on a greater fool buying our shares. [Gold Could Disappear From the Ground Forever]( New gold discoveries are hitting record lows. Just the price to mine gold has skyrocketed 412% over the last decade. With only 5% of mines actually panning out... Gold is being squeezed so much, that a price explosion is imminent. And that’s only one reason for gold to jump... I have four more catalysts to show you. [Plus, discover the #1 gold play to make right now here.]( That inflow of money? In the last three weeks $15 have returned to the market for every $100 that left through the year, according to BofA Merrill Lynch data: [market outlow vs inflow 19nov19] A closer look at the data shows that it looks even worse for U.S. equities. $123 billion has left U.S. equity funds so far this year. Meanwhile, Europe is seeing inflows and emerging markets saw the largest inflows in 41 weeks at $3.3 billion. This is hardly what we want to see with the news we’re getting from economic data and the bond market. Retail sales were horrible in September and October’s numbers didn’t make up for it. Kohl’s and Home Depot just put out numbers today that cast serious doubt on the most important time of the year for sales for a large number of companies. [Historic “Gold Cross” Means the Next Supercycle Is Beginning: Buy These Three Tiny Stocks Now]( JP Morgan Chase cut Q4 GDP estimates to 1.25% from an already low 1.75% on the same day the indices posted the biggest gains of the week. We're seeing a growing disconnect between GDP and stock market performance: [economy market disconnect 19nov19] Gains based on what then? China trade talks that promise to roll back tariffs imposed from the top down by a President who says he doesn’t think rolling back tariffs is a great idea? And to levels they were at earlier this year. Consider me unimpressed. If this is the catalyst for a flood of money into the stock market, we’re truly on our last, wheezing gasps of an overly optimistic run.

Expectations are high, results are coming in low, and prices are rapidly climbing back towards the highest valuation — 18 times the previous year’s earnings — since the Great Recession. What happened after that high point? A 10% drop. Plus that was when GDP growth was over twice what it is now. People don’t want to hear this. I know it is boring. It doesn’t feel like winning. Yet. That isn’t to say that we have nothing to do but twiddle our thumbs and sit on the sidelines. The beauty of the markets is how wide they truly are. Take a breather from pumping money into equities. Don’t run for the hills but don’t pay prices built on hype and short-sighted hope. Look to safe havens that will see inflows during the inevitable backlash early next year. Gold miners are in a good position for another rally after a slight pullback. And that is just in the short term. Long term, the gold industry is facing massive bullish trends, including depleting reserves, the strongest central bank buying we’ve seen in years, recapitalization, and M&A at hefty premiums. With the broader market coasting purely on hope and in defiance of all the warning signs, start building [positions based on real potential.]( Take care, [Adam English] Adam English [follow basic]( [@AdamEnglishOC on Twitter]( Adam's editorial talents and analysis drew the attention of senior editors at [Outsider Club](, which he joined in mid-2012.
