“The stock market is a casino.”
Over the long term you are a guaranteed loser at the casino.
OTOH, the stock market keeps on going higher!
Where do you believe people shop more when local small businesses close?
For example, my daughter lives in WV, it’s all chain restaurants, big box stores, etc-—because there’s very few small local businesses. Also, layoffs, government intervention, etc.
Also, what happened during Covid? Which companies were making money hand over fist? It’s not what’s causing this but adding to it...

The stock market and casino are the same thing.
If you don’t play you can’t win or lose.
BTW which pasture is Trump grazing in?
“If you don’t play you can’t win or lose.”
You don’t “play” the market. You become an owner in good companies.
Actually there are graphs showing the market going up when his poll numbers go up.
the market, in my short years investing thus far, seems more like a casino than a sea of rationality.
Hong Kong is at the same level as 1997, China at 2017 levels.
Doomers will doom, and can be right in the end. But the market continues higher. Extreme low volatility is algo buy opportunities everyday. There will always be dips, ebbs and flows.
The left knows in order to save socialism they need Trump to use capitalism.
Trump…spot on.
Most likely it’s the failure of Biden’s Empire.
The green push would have eventually ended the USA
“the market, in my short years investing thus far, seems more like a casino than a sea of rationality.”
In the last five years the markets are up over 50%. You really have to work hard to lose.
You don’t “play” the market. You become an owner in good companies.

Yep,
It’s also the same thing, If you know what you’re doing.
You “get it” Gator.
“It’s also the same thing,”
In the casino the house has the odds. In the market the investor has the odds.
Even if you don’t know what you are doing you can easily make money in the market.
