I still don't get how you reconcile the fact that if rates rise, thats negative for companies, not to mention the masses in mortgage debt.

Rising rates = cheap bonds = less cash for companies to borrow.

Rising rates = higher payments = less cash for consumers.

Or am I doing brain surgery when I should be digging ditches?

yup
"I still don't get how you reconcile the fact that if rates rise, thats negative for companies,".....and who told you that myth...lol
and besides....none of that has anything to do with the stock market........the stock market has everything to do with the economy........snort

reconcile this......booming ecomony ...positive for companies....positive for rates....rates go up eh......you forget that the rates crashed with the falling economy during the depression....

rising rates....make consumers and companies borrow more and faster for fear of having to pay higher rates later.......
