Eventually people will sell their stock to invest in some business that is actually growing or giving proportional dividends.
Of course, that "eventually" there is holding a way too much load. And it's very likely this won't happen in a time the US government is printing lots of money and distributing it to rich investors. But that second one has to stop eventually too.

- marcosdumay 2y agoIt's a lot of people holding the stock, you are expecting everybody to just not do it. Private companies are different, but on publicly traded ones it tends to happen. (Oh, you may mean that printing money part. It's a lot of people holding that money, eventually somebody will want to buy something real with it and inflation explodes.)
- d1sxeyes 2y agoYeah the printing money bit. Generously one might even say that that’s the reason for printing more money: make sure that the value of peoples investments decays over time so there’s no need for the market to crash to “get the money back out”.
