and if/when the recession (or even a mild economic downturn) hits, the impact felt by the exotic / luxury car market is HUGE.

Advocating for "Recession" just because a car is over priced due to ADM is not cool. A lot more people will suffer during recession.
The car, you either can afford or cannot afford.
Oh I forgot this is an economic/financial forum. Back to regular programming.

I can understand if someone thinks a recession is right around the corner and does a bit of wait-and-see. But there have been people on this forum who have confessed to actively rooting for a recession just to see p-car prices drop, which is quite sad, to put it politely.

We all get hurt in a down turn
I wish every one hits the lottery

I've been heavily invested in bonds/fixed funds. It's in MY best interest for a stock market crash, economic recession. Once the market crashes, it's in MY best interest to buy large cap equities on the cheap using my fixed income funds. My investment strategy is dependent on others losing. It's not personal, it's business.

The ultra-low bond yields you purchased have enabled companies to fund a record amount of equity buybacks since the crash in 2008/9. In fact, 2018 saw the greatest amount of buybacks on record. This has fueled the S&P to a 300% gain from the lows of the prior recession. No exaggeration, companies used YOUR money to create huge wealth for themselves. Afterwards, they pay you back par, plus the lowest yields on record. Their investment strategy was based on YOU losing and missing the entire bull market - the longest since WWII.
To use your quote: It's not personal, it's business.
Do you find this unsettling?
