Munger says that if he were"dictator for a day," he would break up what he calls the"marriage" that is investors who are looking to build long-term wealth and those who are focused on short-term gains putting their money in the same stock market.

Munger said that current liquidity levels — meaning the ease with which stocks can be sold for cash — has created"wretched excess and danger for the country," comparing the massive amounts of money moving around every day to"people getting drunk at a party" and not thinking about the"consequences."to liken day trading and stock picking to gambling. Experts have warned that the ease of use of trading apps make it easier for users to lose large sums of money, fast.
