    So the dow jones is less today than it was at its peak in 2000.

    That is 11 years.

    With all the inflation, money printing, industry, growth, manufacturing and production it is still less than 11 years ago... Is the dow jones heading into undervalued territory? I mean, just consider how much base money is in circulation today compared to 2000!

    Discuss :)

    It might be undervalued but it's still in the middle of a minefield - undervalued is only any good to an investor if it makes it through the minefield, if an "undervalued" stock blows up on the way it's no good. I'm keeping my head down stock wise atm - watching with a few potentials on my radar, but am very cautious.

    This is from someone that sank 40k into the market late 2009 early 2010.

    The Dow was overvalued in 2000, and the US GDP is below the 2005 level today if inflation adjusted despite population grows in the last 6 years.

    Who's concerned about what will happen over night with the Dow? I reckon we might see some fireworks with downside momentum building.

    Might see the Dow replicate the Japanese stock market.

    Would be interesting to say the least.
