Schwarzman Added, “When You Have An Economy That Grows At 2.5 Percent, 2.75 Percent, And A Stock Market That Goes Up 27 Percent, Seems Somewhat Disconnected.”













There’s a disconnect between modest economic growth and the roaring stock market, Blackstone Group Chairman and CEO Stephen Schwarzman told CNBC on Thursday.“The economy is improving pretty modestly. I think there’s a lot of bullishness that feeds on itself,” he said in a “Squawk Box” interview. “The real world is moving ahead. But it’s not barreling ahead.”Schwarzman added, “When you have an economy that grows at 2.5 percent, 2.75 percent, and a stock market that goes up 27 percent, seems somewhat disconnected.”He won’t predict whether a correction in stocks is coming but did say that “it seems a low probability that markets continue going up at 27 percent.”http://www.cnbc.com/id/101279083
