Markets crash all the time...YET S&P 500 made another new high yesterday

"Markets crash all the time. You should, at minimum, expect stocks to fall at least 10% once a year, 20% once every few years, 30% or more once ortwice a decade, and 50% or more once or twice during your lifetime. Those who don't understand this will eventually learn it the hard way." - MorganHousel (from Barry Ritholtz)
