Huh.. Trying to understand how the markets are at record highs right now yet the economy appears to be in the toilet. Is the market not adjusted for all of the supposed currency that was printed? If they did print billions of dollars in money, that would allow the markets to get back to the levels we were at before the crash. This would make it seem like the economy is recovered but in reality all they did was adjust the chart by printing money. Is there a way to see how much money is actually "printed"?

Good question. It's actually pretty common for markets to go up when the economy is bad. People don't want to invest in productive enterprise that is likely to go bankrupt so they park their capital in "safe" investments like stocks, bonds, commodities, etc.
