Not to sound the cynic (OK. I lied. I do intend to),
but the stock market exists for the benefit of those
who run it (traders) & their buddies (institutional giants).
The rest of us are just along for the ride & hope we don't
get too screwwwed. Illusion at its finest.
The Emperor unclothed, as it may be.
The world's largest legitimate craps table, and much like
casinos, the odds are rigged against you.

Gee. I hope I don't sound tooooo bitter...........
