1937—I REST MY CASE….1999-2000

1937?

Authored by Sven Henrich via NorthmanTrader.com,

We’ve talked about the year 2000 comparison (Party like it’s 1999). In 2020 markets went onto a similar structural tear just having rammed relentlessly higher. In 2000 markets famously topped in March following the Fed’s Y2K inspired liquidity injections in 1999 as markets had vastly disconnected from fundamental reality.

Now that the truth is out we also know that markets are now vastly disconnected from fundamentals.

And the 2000 comparisons still hold water on a number of measures, price to sales, price to ebitda, market cap to GDP and of course relative weightings in favor of the few as the rally continues to narrow.

The top 2 stocks now have gone complete vertical especially as it relates to their weighting in the S&P:

This chart from Carter Worth on Fast Money last night and even he pointed out how in the lead up to the 2000 top there was some back and forth, but not here, just completely uninterrupted vertical.

One of the 2 stocks being Microsoft, a stock that now has nearly doubled since 2019 with a market cap expansion of over $700 billion for a total market cap of over $1.4 trillion. Historic.

And add the top 4 and their market caps you get this same vertical picture:
