If all investors (including institutional investors) sell their stocks, who is going to buy the shares?
Answer:
That's why we have institutions: someone has to hold stock. By their charter rules, they can only sell a certain percentage of the total value of the fund. Therefore, they are always "in" the market. The institutions have become "the public."
To take their place, because of technology, we now have hundreds of thousands of Day Traders poised over the Buy/Sell button that causes the wild girations and whipsaws. Almost not any fun anymore.
Think of the opportunities.
How low does a stock price drop before someone rushes to buy it? (Think banks, utilities, Wal-Mart, McDonalds)
Consider that it takes two parties to affect a financial transaction: a BUYER and a SELLER. If a BUYER doesn't exist, then there cannot be a SALE. If all investors are TRYING to sell and there are no BUYERS, there cannot be any SALES; the prices have to drop to encourage buyers to enter the marketand make purchases.
