I dont think anyone who doesnt have interest in stock market want it to rise up much less to fall. Im personally against any virtual market and virtual economy. The amount of gold in the banks has to be equal to the amount of currency, so everybody who want to exchange papers will be able to buy the gold. i mean tonns of paper money

I want the Wall St. crooks in jail. What happens to the stock market because of that, I'll live with.

i would want a rising but as shown in history past the stock market doesnt always reflect the current economic conditions

Its sort of a conundrum? A rising msrket makes rich guys richer, but also REALLY helps retirees.

We want real growth - not a speculative bubble rigged for a few insiders to make a killing.

This is not a question with a meaningful answer.

If the stock market rises or falls, most OWSers need not care since most do not own shares and if they did would not sell them to profit if the price rose.

If you want to make money on the share market nowadays, its a 24-hour job!

Falling stock market, naturally.

It's schadenfreude-licious!

It's not as if they have any money of their own invested.
