    I’m sure you did. The stock market is nothing more than legal gambling.

      You’re saying it usually does not function properly as a means of buying and selling control over companies? Because Musk bought his first big piece of Twitter on the stock market. That’s an example of the stock market working as intended. I would argue that this is how the stock market usually works. This is not gambling. This is the purchase of a tangible asset.
