It doesnt evaporate like a car or a houses value can, right?. Doesnt it mean when stocks crash is because over selling? So someone is cashing out at the top and in the way down? So the economy crashes and there are people sitting on piles of money while only paying 15% taxes due to long term holding....

I mean at least that my rudimentary understanding

Value is produced and lost based on human labor. When human labor goes down, "value" as a general concept goes down as well, there's less riches in the world. This causes inflation, which devaluates money.

But yes also the super rich got riched during the pandemic.

Yeah Im making this topic cause Im seeing videos about the Fed "going broke" and Im here like...they spent trillions on quantitative easing which inflated stock prices...and those at the top cashed out that money. Im probably grossly misunderstanding this, but that what it seems like for someone not fully knowledgeable on the subject.

Total amount of value decreases, while those at the top get more from the lower classes.

Right...it becomes a transfer of wealth. And every new recession the inequality gap widens and the goverment bails those at the top while growing the national debt even bigger. This doesnt seem sustainable.

It just goes to the people who sell. People who hold are bag holders. Because they are holding the bag of the worthless stock, crypto, or whatever asset.

The wealth isn't real it's on paper.

Jeff Bezos doesn't have hundreds of billions of dollars. He has millions of shares of Amazon. Amazon stock goes down 5%, news media reports this as "Jeff Bezos just lost 2 billion dollars"

Right. My point is that money through these means doesnt evaporate, its just transfered. So during all economic crisis there are people holding the big bags of money.

It's not transferred. It never existed in the first place.

The security exists. The value of the wealth attributed to it is arbitrary to be determined by the buyer.
