Why is the market so stupid and wrong most of the time?

    The market is never wrong... it always shows the exact price at any given point in time where at least 1 buyer and at least 1 seller agree to transact business.

    The idea that the market "should" be trading at any given price is a misguided notion and is tantamount to complaining that your scale doesn't work properly just because you don't like how much it says you weigh.

  4. Market is not stupid because it knows you can't short from zero.

  10. You are the media’s mushroom. They keep you in the dark and shovel only the shit that they think you need to hear. Until you think for yourself you will be at their mercy.
