No, you mentioned stocks not having future expected cash flows. I just don't see the difference between that and Ponzi schemes, even if there are some real exam

- everfree 5y agoMany popular stocks (all stocks without dividends or buybacks) are like a Ponzi scheme in that all of the money used to pay early investors (through sale of the security) comes from later investors (buying into the security). However, they are different from a Ponzi scheme in that there is a real business behind them, and no deception/fraud.
