What if None of it Has Been Priced In?
Back in early 2020, as Coronavirus headlines swirled around the world, U.S. stocks totally ignored them well into February. It became a common trope that it was all priced in, as clearly the market was well aware of the headlines and the spread of Corona to many countries besides China (Italy e.g.).

A New Regime Means ARKK is a Dead Duck
The above chart, courtesy of Jeff Weniger, illustrates the regime change already well underway with value stocks outperforming growth after the prior extended bull run for growth.

If You're Bullish Here, Just Have a Look at Microsoft
With a market cap still over $1.8 trillion (with a T!) as I write this, Microsoft clearly remains one of the most epic winners from the QE/ZIRP era, as fund managers and retail alike constantly piled into the name and equated it to one of the safest financial assets on Planet Earth. On the second chart, below, of the multi-year quarterly...

It's a High Stakes Poker Game
And your opponents just gave away valuable information. The following exchange between Cathie Wood and Elon Musk on Twitter this week should shed light on just how important low rates are for their business models, be it the high growth holdings in ARKK or Tesla and its sky high PE ratio.
