How advanced is the prosperity of the US stock market? The latest data shows that the total market capitalization to GDP ratio has just hit a historic high of 218%.

Specifically, the total market value of US stocks has soared to $68 trillion, which is more than double the total US economy of $31 trillion. Even more astonishing, this ratio has increased by 56% over the past 8 months. Looking at a longer timeline, this indicator is about 78% higher than the peak during the 2000 internet bubble.

Since the outbreak of the pandemic in 2020, the growth rate of the US stock market has been twice that of the world's largest economy. This level of growth, to some extent, also reflects the market's hotness—and the potential risk factors. For investors concerned with global asset allocation, these numbers are worth deep consideration.

218%？Bro, these numbers are so outrageous I want to laugh. It's 78% higher than the internet bubble of 2000... The crash is really coming this time, no joke. --- The recent surge in the US stock market is twice the economic growth rate. In other words, assets are just self-pleasuring, and the risks have piled up. --- $68 trillion against a $31 trillion economy... This mismatch in pairing makes me a bit anxious. I need to adjust my positions quickly. --- 8 months up 56%? It should have peaked by now. I’ve been waiting for that sound but it never came. --- Another bubble? History always repeats itself. Who will be the next to take the fall this time...

218%? That's outrageous, even more exaggerated than the internet bubble by 78%!🤔 --- Crazy, an 8-month return of 56%. How big is the tail risk? --- The recent rebound in the US stock market is a bit overdone, it feels like it's building ammunition for the subsequent correction. --- $68 trillion, with an economy totaling only $31 trillion. What does this number indicate? --- Wait, the stock market gains are twice the economy's size? How many people are taking the other side of the trade? --- Haha, the internet bubble has been surpassed, history always repeats itself. --- The key is that the past 8 months have been so intense. How long will it take to clear this out?

218%？ Oh my, this bubble is really about to burst... --- More exaggerated than the internet bubble, why hasn't it burst yet? --- 68 trillion... Just hearing the number makes me dizzy. Is this real prosperity or fake prosperity? --- Wait, 56% increase in 8 months? Something's not right. --- Another night of the prelude to a wave of profit-taking. --- GDP is only 31 trillion, stock market 68 trillion. This math is despairing. --- What about the lessons from 2000? Does history always repeat itself? --- Crazy, crazy. Who would believe that the growth rate doubles? --- Damn, how high must this risk factor be? --- The US stock market is starting to spin stories again.

218%？Haha, isn't this just printing money like crazy? Should have played like this a long time ago. --- Wait, 78% higher than the internet bubble? Should I run now... --- 56% growth in 8 months... everyone, this is definitely a top signal. --- We all see through the US stock bubble, just waiting for it to burst. --- Crazy, crazy, the growth rate is twice that of GDP. Can this continue? Wake up, brother. --- Still buying at such crazy prices? You guys are really brave. Salute. --- 68 trillion... basically a numbers game, waiting to be harvested. --- I just want to know how long this can last, how long can it last? --- Investors are still pondering these data? It's time to act directly, either run or increase positions. --- Another all-time high, another potential risk... always saying this, then hitting new highs again, cycle repeats.

218%? How detached from reality is that, more outrageous than the internet bubble. --- $68 trillion stacked up, but the economic fundamentals can't keep up. This show should come to an end. --- Bro, as soon as this data came out, I knew it was going to crash. History always repeats itself. --- Double growth rate? A typical bubble inflator, sooner or later it will deflate. --- No wonder the stock market feels like two different worlds from reality; turns out the numbers are already this absurd. --- 56% growth in 8 months? That's hilarious, isn't this just gambling? --- Wait, higher than the internet bubble? Why haven't I run away yet? It's time to wake up.
