What was said around it

the argument that the market is at an all-time high doesn't make a lot of sense because naturally we're always going to be hitting new all-time highs like imagine buying into the s p 500 at its previous all-time high on january 26 2018 at 28.72 sure in the subsequent few months prices went down and it took about a year to return back to that same level but even though you bought in at a previous all-time high if you just held so far today you would be up 25 in just under three years not even including dividends being reinvested and in 30 years from now i could say with almost 100 certainty that the stock market is going to be way higher then than it is today and i bet 30 years from now we can look back at today and be like wow the market is so cheap i wish i bought more of course yes anything could happen and maybe the markets go down in the short term who knows either way statistically it's better to get your money invested in the markets now and continually reinvest otherwise you could be a part of the statistic that misses out on those best days in the market and lastly i just want to say this just because some good news came out does not mean we're out of the woods just yet and if
