Only other times in history stocks have been this expensive and its driven 100% by debt.

Expensive market

What’s more, stocks aren’t exactly cheap. The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index SPX, +0.15%   is trading at 24.16 times trailing 12-month earnings compared with an historical average of 17.7.

Using economist Robert Shiller’s CAPE, or cyclically adjusted P/E ratio, the S&P 500 is currently trading at an historically high level of 30.22: a level reached prior to the 1929 stock market crash and exceeded during the late 1990’s dot-com bubble.

This is happening at a time when earnings for the S&P 500 companies have declined for the last three consecutive quarters, with a projected decline in the fourth quarter as well, according to FactSet.

Yet with all that investment knowledge about 99% of hedge fund managers can't beat the same index that 90% of regular fund managers can't beat.

What are you gonna do?

Hedge fund managers cant beat the index because the indexes are driven by central bank insanity and passive investing algos.
