Apple's iPhone X will be killed off this year, analyst says

If the stock market was gambling it would be illegal in many places in the USA where gambling is prohibited. Manipulating the market for your is something people are often locked up for, but more often than that corporations and the people who run them get away with it due to corruption of government by special interests. Your 401K and many things you depend on in turn depend on the stock market not being illegally manipulated. Valid but unsound argument, since the stock market _is_ gambling. Just like betting on the horsies. it's nothing at all like betting on 'horsies'. You study the form, then you place your bets. I've done it. The only time I lost money was when I bet on a company whose product and market I didn't understand. I took a friend's advice, always a bad idea. I never bet more than I could afford to lose, just like at the track. But I gave it up after a while, took my winnings, and bought a car for cash. Never had to finance a car again, so I came out ahead in more ways than one. then you don't understand the stock market. BTW, my pension plan is invested in dividend paying companies, real estate, bonds, and stuff like that. Being in Canada, it's not allowed to bet on the stock market. I do have a mutual fund that bets on the market, they dropped a few percent in the last quarter: the Trump effect, apparently. the recent drop is a buy opportunity. |
