Payne's Perspective: July 29, 2024: World for the Wealth
7/29/2024
“When the price of a stock can be influenced by a ‘herd’ on Wall Street with prices set at the margin by the most emotional person, the greediest person, or the most depressed person, it is hard to argue that the market always prices rationally. Market prices are frequently nonsensical.” -Warren Buffett, 1984 Undoubtedly, we are amid a herd mentality run amok.
