PX, >>in the short run...Jack profits from Jill's loss.<< You can certainly consider it that way, but it still doesn't make it a zero-sum game. But the point you're trying to make is still valid in several different ways: For example: some people are making more than others. Also, if you consider the stock market a contest, then the greatest riches will probably go to the ones with the most skill/ability/knowledge/power/control/aggressiveness/whatever. Regards, Larry PS: Definitely not trying to pick an argument, just quibbling over the use of one term.
