I was looking to get everyone's opinion on what they BELIEVE to be the UNDISPUTED LAWS of the financial markets. I'm defining the "financial markets" as the stock, options, and commodities markets.
I'm looking for 100% LAWS, not ambiguities or "feel good" mantras that aren't 100% accurate.
For example, the LAW OF GRAVITY works 100% of the time. If you drop a marble from your hand, it will, 100% of the time, fall to the floor.
Another example, "Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered" is not a law but a guideline. It isn't a law and just means don't get too greedy.
LAW #1
---------
There are no "experts".
No one knows which direction the market will move on any given day.
(The other day one "expert" was saying "BULL BULL BULL" and then not 5 minutes later, another "expert" was saying "BEAR BEAR BEAR!")
LAW #2
--------
FEAR is a more powerful motivator than GREED.
LAW #3
---------
Time cannot be suspended, it always is moving forward.
(Relates to options markets.)
LAW #4
---------
When demand exceeds supply, prices move up. When supply exceeds demand, prices move down.
What other LAWS can you think of?
Or, what might be a law? (A stock will never rise to infinity? A stock never goes straight up? Remember, a law is indisputable.)
