Though an upward surge is welcoming to many, most stock markets globally have risen to new heights &#8211; raising concerns about a stock market bubble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is a snapshot of how global liquidity supply has increased exponentially over the past four decades:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/jamaappprod.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/Blog\/Global+Liquidity2.PNG\" alt=\"Global Liquidity Supply\"><figcaption><em>Image source: <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yardeni.com\/pub\/frodorcb.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>https:\/\/www.yardeni.com\/pub\/frodorcb.pdf<\/em><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">COVID economic relief stimulus checks<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The US government had passed a bill to offer stimulus checks as a measure to uplift people impacted by the COVID pandemic. While the first stimulus checks worth of $1,200 each were issued in April 2020, the second round worth $ 600 each were sanctioned in late December. These COVID-19 relief measures also increased the purchasing power of the citizens, thereby, also increasing the liquidity in turn, increasing the global liquidity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Federal Reserve printing more money<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Within a few months of the outbreak of the pandemic and subsequent economic slowdown, the Federal Reserve started \u2018printing money\u2019 at a rate that wasn\u2019t heard of. Banks have used their money creation powers to print more money against the \u2018excess reserves\u2019 they had with the Fed. With more money available with banks, they have started purchasing the unwanted assets of other market participants. These activities have only increased the liquidity supply in the market, further contributing to the <a href=\"https:\/\/maxiomwealth.com\/\">stock market<\/a> rise\u00a0upwards<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rise of Inflation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>As long as the fears of the COVID 19 pandemic would be there, the Fed\u2019s actions would also persist. With the interest rates going down significantly and liquidity on the rise, inflation is almost inevitable. With the U.S. heading towards an inflation, other countries in the world might also follow the suite and be exposed to the risks of inflation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Rally of Tech and Pharma companies<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The demand for smart technology has increased multifold during the lockdown\u2014 given most of the world\u2019s population was working from home.&nbsp;This accelerated the growth of tech companies causing stocks of IT companies to reach new highs. Healthcare and pharmaceutical industries have been at the heart of the pandemic which propelled demand for this sector in the market.&nbsp;At least in the immediate future, these industries would continue their upward trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long can this stock market bubble hold up?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the strongest reasons for the Fed to confidently print money is that US Dollar is the global reserve currency. However, with other things remaining stable, the status of U.S. dollar as the global reserve currency might gradually decline. What about the stock markets? Will they continue to rise and will the bubble just get bigger? The stock market history is proof that any extreme trend would never last for long. With the developments in the politics and pandemic, the stock markets will go through a correction and reset themselves. The only question to answer here is \u2014 \u2018When?\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Till then it makes sense to stay invested, while following an asset allocation (simply put, sufficient money in secure debt instruments). Not being in the market is also a risk and more money has been lost waiting for a correction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jamawealth.com\">Wealth Wealth<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<!-- mw-cta-block -->\n\n<div class=\"mw-cta-block\" style=\"background:#EEF3FC;border-left:5px solid #1C52A0;padding:22px 26px 20px;margin:36px 0 24px;border-radius:0 10px 10px 0;\">\n  <p style=\"margin:0 0 4px;font-size:11px;font-weight:700;color:#276FC4;letter-spacing:1px;text-transform:uppercase;\">Maxiom Wealth \u2014 Free Tool<\/p>\n  <h3 style=\"margin:0 0 10px;font-size:19px;font-weight:700;color:#113E81;line-height:1.3;\">Market Volatility Doesn&#8217;t Have to Derail Your Goals<\/h3>\n  <p style=\"margin:0 0 18px;color:#444;font-size:15px;line-height:1.65;\">The investors who build wealth through market cycles are those with a plan built for their timeline \u2014 not the market&#8217;s.
