Everything you're seeing is the result of massive QE and artificially low interest rates. 40% of all the USD in economy has been created in the last 2 years. In 2008 the FEDS balance sheet was 800 Billion, today it is almost 9 trillion. All that money they created out of nothing has to go somewhere and finds its way into the markets, housing, etc. Can you imagine what would happen if the FED tried to remove just a couple of those trillions? Imagine if the FED 0.25 Interest Rate was 5% + it was just 12 years ago.
Can the madness continue, yes and much longer than you can imagine. This will only end when the fed decides it ends, only they know the time and day.
