Is the stock market proof that most people are actually dumb?

markets are up right now just because of extra stimulus talks, but in reality the effects of stimulus are only going to last about 2 months before things go to crap again. Why are people so stupid?

    The big boys run the stock market and play with other people's 401k money. They win if the market is up and if it goes down and crashes innocent people get hurt.

    It boils down to timing and hoping you will be smart and everyone else dumb, eg getting on in time and getting off in time

    The stock market is UP almost 50% since Trump took office.  Just think of how much better off everyone with any kind of pension or retirement plan would be if they weren't so stupid.  YOU are one of the stupid.

    I'll take financial experts managing trillions of Dollars of assets over some obviously biased hater.
