Wall Street made 31 billion dollars in profits in 2021 (https://www.osc.state.ny.us/press/releases/2021/10/dinapoli-wall-st-2021-profits-near-record-levels). During a raging pandemic. I thought the markets basically find price values within people buying and selling stock? I know retail isn’t spending money on the stock market , not that kind of money. I mean who runs Wall Street anyways.
Could it be… they’ve rigged the system for their gain? All this money isn’t for public use. It’s private gain. Yachts and houses . Sports cars , fancy trips. Making a few people richer and richer.
Isn’t the NYSE like the capitol of the economy? Huge importance yes? Lots of money flowing thru. How come the average person knows nothing about it and yet it runs so well. It’s almost like a private money club. And when these money club members do illegal things to make a lot of money? Oh they pay a small fine. And that fine, oh it’s tax deductible. Oh yes it really is that stupid. So don’t think for a second they aren’t constantly breaking the law and making billions while you work til death to actually run the damn country .
