Default Re: Wealth creation in zero sum games

Not necessarily infinite, but yes they have a lot of room to expand. Think about it. Any increase in technology/productivity increase the amount of wealth that can be created for a given amount of money. So in the long run the stock market generates value, because shares of stock represent ownership of a company. And the value of companies in general will increase over time for the previously stated reason (there are others, as well).
