What is driving stocks down this year?
Year to date all three of the major indexes are in the red.
The Dow Jones industrial average is down 8.71% from Jan 1 of this year.
The S&P 500 is down 7.98% this year
The NASDAQ composite is down 2.3% this year.
Where is the money going? Banks and treasuries are paying almost nothing in interest and the commodities are not doing very good. With so many people investing through 401's what is the cause of the decline? Is the market rigged to favor the investment bankers that make profit shorting the market?
