Remember saving accounts that paid 4%?

That was a normal market.

Now savings accounts pay 0.01%.

So, to get any sort of yield on an investment, people have to put their money into the stock market.

It’s a bubble, a rigged casino.

look at a ruler. how many inches does it take to measure 1 foot?

let's say i cut the inch in half. how many inches does it take now?

the thing your measuring didn't change (the foot)... just the unit of measure.
