Should we be surprised or not surprised the stock market hasn't crashed with rate rises for 2+ years?

Since 2022 or since the 2020s they've been raising the interest rates. Personally, I was expecting a stock market crash since before it began and when it began lol. They started raising rates here for interest rates around May 2022. The USA and elsewhere, I'm not sure, 2021 or 2022? Ah well. Now I keep waiting for any stock market crash. I keep waiting lol 😆 🤣

Surprised

Not surprised

What's a stock

What's a stock market

Democrat tax/spend/borrowing is supporting the market and fueling inflation.

Surely doesn't the market have to give at some point like anything? Even steel isn't as strong as, steel lol 🚧🏗️ lol

It's also a matter of staying in the market for maximum gains and selling off the day before the crash.
Just like other forms of gambling.

If we cut off aid to Ukraine, the market will slump. If we start a war with Iran, it will surge.
When Trump wins, it will surge. If Biden wins, it will slump and then drop.
When domestic manufacturers give up in EVs (Biden mandates end) it will slump.
When Trump engages the trade war with China, it will surge.

with robinhood, etc more people are getting into the stock market and sticking with stocks, not pulling them out and putting them into bonds, for example like big investors may do.
