Iirc the last solid stats i have seen are from 2019 when 82% of the public market was owned by institutional long term investors. And i doubt it went down.

Liquidity is high because the market makers role has exploded and they invest a lot to make sure it stay high.

You misunderstand. I'm saying that there's more than one way to skin a cat. Again, I would like to know where my Jenga set is.

This is another way of saying that organic liquidity is low and we needed a middleman to preclude actual price discovery, for reasons.
