I am so confused, I get the market and the economy are different [View all]

but why has the market not nose dived yet? I don't want it to, I am invested in it to a large extent. I have set my mind that I can expect a huge drop and have to do the mantra that you don't loose till you cash out. But again, if the market is so smart why has it not reacted? If the consumer has no money, they don't purchase, if they don't purchase than business can't prosper? Again I get they are different, but are they not co-dependent? I learned that the economy fuels the market, and I see no fuel in the pipe line.
