""The money lost goes to money heaven. It doesn't go anywhere else. It just goes up in smoke""

I am not an economist/in finance. But it is often a matter of debate (for ex in media) as to "where did the money go? whenever an asset falls.

that is: common perception is

x,y,z asset fall = a,b,c asset rise+cash

i know this is not correct (not even close?). And asset lost many times, is just vaporized.
And i think complex financial instruments are the reasons why it is so. But i am not completely clear on this either.
could someone shed light on this.
