Long-time bear in residence, John Hussman, says investors are facing a “trap door”

 The manager says he’s finding it hard to get constructive on these “overvalued markets with ragged and divergent internals” — conditions that he notes were seen at 2000, 2007, and 2020 market peaks.

 What does it all mean?

When the time comes to ask the question – “What triggered the crash?” – remember that this is the least important question. 

A market crash requires nothing more than a shift in investor psychology from careless speculation to even modest risk-aversion.  

The important question to ask is “What drove the bubble?” That’s where the lessons are. 

The root causes of a crash are always the factors that nurtured and encouraged the “happy” period of carefree and irresponsible speculation that led to the bubble extreme.
