That is what happens. Do you think institutions stop buying overpriced crap because it's overpriced? The S&P is overpriced crap at the moment.
Real world reaction if/when markets crash? Will this time be different?

Actually, one set of nieces probably will, but hopefully not anytime soon. At least thats what their dad is hoping😀And the others, no, not much anyway.
Institutional investors - like life insurance companies buy bluechip stocks every time their model says buy.
I'm sure they have venture arms too - boom or zero.
Your point that they are not cost averaging above their target price would seem accurate.
they'd also not pay someone to manage their money (ie a mutual fund manager)
do they hedge?
I can also lend life insurance companies money at 7% for 5 years (i think it was 5) - they have a minimum and maximum and can cash out whenever they want before the maturation date.
the loan can not be called without penalty.
Damn, that looks good now!

FTFY. If you’re smart enough to make the money you have to be smart enough to keep it.Ahh, silly you, you forgot the loopholes...the problem with your theory here is that the wealthier you are the better you are athidingdeferring income. You are a fool if you really think the wealthy pay a higher relative tax rate. This is where life insurance policies and all the other BS loopholes come into play.

Stock markets for saps, I bought this video/book set at a garage sale three months ago for seventy five cents cash (small discount for the stains but there was a Steller poloroid in book 2 page 41 that made it worth it😍) After reading through and following the procedures 95% of the way I am rolling in the cash. Listen to Don.

Yeah it's going to yoyo for awhile. Once repubs take over congress and stop the reckless spending, and we get thru this mini-recession, it'll go up again.
Once the war in eastern Europe resolves, and trade is reestablished, uncertainty goes down and the market will recover.

That will help too. But recession and inflation fears are fueling most of what's going on right now.

Yes - exports. Bottom line, Dow did not drop much when Russia invaded Ukraine. Gradual decline due to multiple factors. Then it recovered mid-August almost to within 2000 pts of the all-time high, while the war continued. Inflation and recession led to the drop to where we are now.
