What if it just… doesn’t?


It'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.)


Yeah 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”.
