The money that is “in” the stock market is the stolen excess capital. There is nothing else to do with it except “invest” it. They can take it out or put it in. That’s it.

Legally they must act in a fiduciary manner. They have to be “rational” lol. Better to just follow the herd than sustain losses that are way out of line, there’s real risk there, of their own money.

But really it’s just because there isn’t anything else to do with it.

I think you are victim blaming Iran.

Iran was traumatized by the western capitalists. Their response was a theocracy because that was the only way to cope. I can’t think of any other way to avoid the wests machinations. Democracy is a joke with capitalism.
