punished milkman posted:Lmao there are so many of articles like these. i have a small, bad brain but i’m 99% sure these are just straight FUD to make retail afraid of index funds since they are one of the few ways normal wage slaves can enjoy market gains while minimizing the chances of being a bag holding retail chump that's what this one is saying quote:In recent decades, the whole economy has gone on autopilot. Index-fund investment is hyperconcentrated. So is online retail. So are pharmaceuticals. So is broadband. Name an industry, and it is likely dominated by a handful of giant players. That has led to all sorts of deleterious downstream effects: suppressing workers’ wages, raising consumer prices, stifling innovation, stoking inequality, and suffocating business creation. The problem is not just the indexers. It is the public markets they reflect, where more chaos, more speculation, more risk, more innovation, and more competition are desperately needed.

https://contention.substack.com/p/the-us-government-is-lying-about And all of the data suggests that things are especially bad right now. Even with its funny numbers, CPI food prices were up 3.6% year-over-year. Worldwide things are even worse -- food costs have increased 50% since last summer, driven by trade breakdowns and financial speculation. The CPI also hides housing expenses by concocting an “Owner-Equivalent Rent” (OER) figure as its largest single component, supposedly translating housing capital costs to a consumer cost. According to the OER, housing prices are only up 2% over the last year, while the Case-Shiller Housing Index -- which the CPI used to track -- is up 10.3%, the most ever. The CPI actually says that housing inflation is at a 10-year low. Businesses are seeing increased input costs too, with the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) survey of small businesses reporting the highest level of its members raising prices since 2008. Commodities have surged in price, a new commodity “supercycle” driving up consumer prices as businesses increasingly pass on their costs. This is happening because COVID has created a “persistent reallocation shock,” a permanent change in production and demand that will likely take years to work out. This could mean a “regime shift” from 30 years of low inflation to ever-accelerating costs.

Global supply chains are going to be less competitive going forward. The container lines are pulling it in hand over fist now. The cheap container freight party is over.

the only real criticism of index funds that i know are that they make the whole stock market much more brittle and that there’s some funky stuff going on with them lending out stocks or something similar to enable some financial chicanery among traders otherwise they are absolutely the only way for plebs to invest and not loose money for retirement
