This too shall BUST?

Question

remember the "dot com" bust, the housing bubble ( that has now popped due to adj-rate mortage and foreclosure)?

Do you think this era of everyone reading books and listening to financial planners telling them to start investing in the stock market will also break and thousands of people will end up worse off than they were before?

Sometimes I feel the only people who are making any money off investing are the ones getting royalties from all the books they make on how we should handle our money!

AS far as I can tell, the only stable way to make wealth is to own property and even that skrews up!!

Answer 1

There isn't a "financial investing" bubble.  These things have always been around.  Recently however, due to the internet, it has allowed people who could not invest before begin to invest.  The small investor you spek of basically has a very very little impact on the market.  The major hedge funds and large institutional investors move the market.
