Derek Moore and Jay Pestrichelli join up once again to talk about whether the forward PE ratio is getting overextended. Then, they discuss where we are in the 4-year Presidential market cycle, years with the most all-time highs, the US Dollar and interest rates, and PCE inflation numbers. Later, they get into the dynamics of the MicroStrategy convertible bonds and how they resemble options. Finally, they talk through the option dynamics on MicroStrategy include what the implied volatility is, what it is implying for a move over the next year, and what the breakeven levels would be on a 1-year option. Hint, it may be crazy!
