Right now, the stock market seems to be reacting to the fact that things used to be scary. People held it together during the 2008 financial crisis, which is now pretty much solved. The Tea Party People are reacting to this delayed fear, which is why there was so much fussing over the national debt.
But it seems to me that the stock market is now facing all of its normal problems of whether or not the information on a stock is reliable, etc. If you can not cope with that kind of uncertainty, you are in the wrong business.
If you want to be afraid, be afraid of flying in the US. The Federal Aviation Administration, the people who make sure your plane is safe, is out of funds due to more Tea Party machinations. Rural airports are especially affected, so be careful on your vacation.
