+1.  Thanks, Chuck.  You said it better than I did.

If you invest in my company, I build it up and sell it for more money then wealth was indeed created. You got your original investment back plus a share of the profits. The new owner is happy because they willingly bought the company. Your customers are happy, etc. Abstract that one level to stock and the stock market. Who lost money in the above scenario? One could argue the customers did but they got fair value for their service, right? If I invest in your company via a direct paid-in-capital or by buying debentures or by buying stock it is still an investment. Hopefully the company will be worth more when I sell my ownership interest. When I sell for more than I paid, who lost? The new owner of the stock got fair value.

Does anyone ever make money in the stock market without someone else losing that same amount of money? Wealth isn’t created in the stock market, it’s transferred.
