Smoot and Hawley ginned up The Tariff Act of 1930 to get America back to work after the Stock Market Crash of '29.

Jobs evaporated.
The studio system reminds me of the stock market.
Big money is made in the stock market by being on the right side of the major moves. The idea is to get in harmony with the market. It's suicidal to fight trends. They have a higher probability of continuing than not.

In college I started studying the stock market.

When we do an investment, we always ask, 'Can we affect the outcome? When buying a company, can we have an impact?' That's a different style of investing than a passive investor in the stock market.

The difference between playing the stock market and the horses is that one of the horses must win.
