  1. Only a change in asset composition. Some people now have more cash, less stock, whereas before they had more stock, less cash. There's no "net" change in aggregate "wealth."

  2. Paper profits aren't profits.

    It's only bankable when you liquidate.

  3. Good points, both of you.

    Furthermore the markets were artificially inflated by Fed policies, Wall Street games, and corporate stock buybacks, none of which strengthened the real economy.

    The financial economy is a casino in which the chips (i.e. paper wealth) are not plowed into the real economy. Hence there is little loss to the real economy.

    Trump looks stupid when he talks about the markets. Liberals regard him as a clown. So do true conservatives.
