Thanks for the feedback. I am not sure if markets are a zero-sum game though? If the sector grows, the whole pie can become bigger, right?

(I think) His point is not that investing is a zero sum activity but that active trading basically is. For me to make money day trading someone needs to loose money. The total "growth of the pie" is a slow process that you capitalize on by buying and holding.

Fair enough! We do have quite a few users also running medium and longer-term focused strategies such as accumulations on dips
