Is there some reason a crash shouldn't happen? If you have a stake in the market, even in diversified index funds, presumably you know the risk is non-zero, and accept that because the rewards are higher than lower-risk choices like, say, stuffing your money under the mattress.
- MrFoof 6y agoBeen ten years since I was last in it, but a lot of large investment firms (before automated trading was prevalent in the older large institutions) don't have people responding to the market ad hoc. Trades are executed infrequently (weekly, if not monthly) and are approved upfront during trade planning meetings to define the qualifying parameters for a particular order.
