If I Were A Bull I would be scared sh!tless to realize there is so little substance to my "investment" that its values can change by 15 or 20% in a day when nothing changed. Most people would realize that there was something wrong if every day they went to the grocery and the price of everything regularly changed by 15 or 20% on a regular basis, for no reason. But it doesn't bother them in the least that is the case for most or all of their savings and retirement income. As irresponsible and despicable as are the actions of those responsible for the transformation of the equity market into a game of three card monty, if having seen what they have, people still choose to place their money in the stock market, they have no but themselves to blame when they ultimately discover that their stocks are worthless. Investing in this market is worse than “investing” in Vegas. In Vegas, if the casino was found to be controlling the number into which the roulette ball fell based upon where the bets had been placed, it would be closed down for running a fixed and illegal game. Such is not the case on Wall Street.
