“Active traders and professional money managers already know how the U.S. stock market actually works, but Joe and Jane Citizen, whose pensions generally depend on the market in some way, typically do not. Beneath the surface stability, the Fed, the State and the financial Elites have constructed a terribly unstable system for skimming unearned wealth and propping up a propaganda facade of economic ‘improvement.’ If watching a tiny Elite skim billions of dollars from the real economy with the aid of the Fed is your idea of ‘improvement,’ then by all means, buy the rally. Just be ready to sell in 10 milliseconds.”
