Just as my title asks.
With lots of people contributing to a 401k/403b/IRA/Roth IRA, how can the stock market ever go down. Wouldn't those contributions force it to always go up?
Some simple napkin math, $20,000ish 401k max contribution X 10,000,000 people contributing (no idea what the real number of people is) = $200 billion per year pumped in, and these numbers are probably low.
So with this much money being pumped into the stock market every year, how can it possibly go down?
