If the top 10% own 87% of the US stock market, what is the point of the daily volatility?
While I know some here may be in the top 10% of wealth in the US, and others can take advantage of this volatility to nibble around the edges, what is driver of the volatility if the top 10% are mainly trading among themselves?
Wealth Group Percentage of Stock Market Owned
Top 1% 50%
Top 0.1% 23.6%
Next 0.9% (99-99.9th percentile) 26.4%
90-99th percentile 37.2%
50-90th percentile 11.7%
Bottom 50% 1%
