I have o money in the stock market. (77 years old so i'm done with stock market investments)my question is

[bluestarone]

The Billionaires love money. THAT i'm sure of. So as a final measure, (when we have no other options left) would a MASS withdraw from the stock market get their attention? THEY want to control us, and i'm sure many Democrats DO have money in the markets. Would this be something that would get their attention?

1. I have been saving with the idea of producing the income I need in retirement.

If I sell, I lose income from long-invested stocks and have to cough up capital gains on decades worth of investments purchased expressly with the strategy of never selling them. That is quite a loss for the limited impact it might have.

2. I'm certain a big drop in the stock market would get Trump's attention. But it would hurt me too. My retirement funds

4. I DO understand this.

That's why
i said as a LAST RESORT. Our country is about to lose everything.

3. There are massive amounts on money in stocks invested by funds of all sorts

I seriously doubt it would be effective.

The game is so damn rigged.

7. not a good idea

When our friends, family and neighbors were buying bigger homes, taking expensive vacations and leasing luxury cars, living like they were rich, my partner and I were living like we were poor and investing in index funds and single stocks, avoiding debt and driving older cars, going on inexpensive vacations and living debt free so that we could retire with dignity. I don't think this is a good idea as our retirement happiness depends on our investments. Have a great day!

8. No

Individual private ownership of stocks is a drop in the bucket compaired to corporate investments. We're just along for the ride that they control. And I don't worry, they want to make money too.

9. also

a lot of union pension funds are invested in the market.
