It's just that I hate responding to someone who misreads my response. One last time: Person A sells a stock to Person B. That is a zero-sum game if you treat person A and person B as a group. The value within the group has not changed, no matter what price the transaction. Speaking of all investors as a group, stock price fluctuations within that group are a zero-sum game. The only time the sum is increased is if the companies inject money into the group either from a buyback or a dividend, or at least show an increase in asset value (not stock value).
