Agriculture is not crop production as popular belief holds – it’s the production of food and fiber from the world’s land and waters.

The stock market is a discounter of all known information. Kenneth Fisher
I told my father I wanted to go to the stock market. My father reacted by telling me not to ask him or any of his friends for money. He, however, told me that I could live in the house in Mumbai and that if I did not do well in the market I could always earn my livelihood as chartered accountant. This sense of security really drove me in life. Rakesh Jhunjhunwala
The stock market is an exploitable market where being right means you get rich and you help the overall system error-correct which makes it harder to be right (the mechanism pushes prices close to random, they’re not quite random but few can exploit the non-randomness). Dominic Cummings
Because of the love affair between the American public and the stock market, it is possible for entrepreneurs, technological visionaries and inventors of every sort to get financing. Ron Chernow
You get recessions, you have stock market declines. If you don’t understand that’s going to happen, then you’re not ready, you won’t do well in the markets. Peter Lynch
But we have to ask ourselves, what’s the purpose of the stock market? It’s supposed to be a source of capital for growing business. It’s lost that purpose. Mark Cuban
Anyone with a pension or retirement is an investor in the stock market. Brad Katsuyama
I didn’t go to business school, didn’t care about financial stuff and the stock market. Anita Roddick
When it comes to portfolios, my personal advice is for anyone who can, put money into forestry or farmland. Long term, you would probably never come near their returns in the stock market. In the world that I see, land is golden. Jeremy Grantham
I studied economics and thought I wanted to play with the stock market – my dad was a financial adviser – and I was going to go down that path. I was an intern at Smith Barney. Jimmy O. Yang
In addition to a soaring stock market, 6.6 million jobs have been created since tax relief measures went into effect in 2003. Our deficit situation has also improved as tax revenues have increased at double-digit rates over the past two years. Randy Neugebauer
And at a relatively early age, ten or so, I invested my first share of stock. And I used to follow, look at companies and so forth. But throughout the whole period, and indeed right through my college years, while I was involved in the stock market, always interested in finance, I never thought of it as a full-time job. Robert C. Merton
It’s one of the fundamental principles of the stock market: When interest rates go up, stocks go down. And along with financial companies and cyclicals, technology companies – with their sky-high price-to-earnings multiples – should be among the biggest losers in an environment of rising rates. Alex Berenson
In other words, Social Security is every bit as insecure as the stock market. Tony Snow
There are several things that can create an alpha – stock buybacks are one. High dividend yields are another, especially nowadays because the stock market yields more than the banks and the tenure treasury. But by and large, it tends to be companies with a strong cash flow, rising sales, accelerated earnings, a profit margin expansion. Louis Navellier
Smoot and Hawley ginned up The Tariff Act of 1930 to get America back to work after the Stock Market Crash of ’29. Instead, it destroyed trade so effectively that by 1932, American exports to Europe were just a third of what they had been in 1929. World trade fell two-thirds as other nations retaliated. Jobs evaporated. Elaine Chao
The stock market crash in October 1929 didn’t destroy a particularly large amount of wealth or make people highly pessimistic. Rather, it made companies and consumers very unsure about future income, and so led them to stop spending as they waited for more information. Christina Romer
I think businesses live longer that are on the stock market. Brunello Cucinelli
I’ve learned that things change. The whole boy band thing almost turned into a stock market crash. Max Martin
But the minute we went public on the stock market, which is how our wealth was created, it was no longer how many people you employed, it was how much you were worth and how much your company was worth. Anita Roddick
The difference between playing the stock market and the horses is that one of the horses must win. Joey Adams

We had a booming stock market in 1929 and then went into the world’s greatest depression. We have a booming stock market in 1999. Will the bubble somehow burst, and then we enter depression? Well, some things are not different. Jeffrey Sachs
As I have said before, the daily machinations of the stock market are like a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. John C. Bogle

The stock market can be down, but the stock market is not an indication of where people’s spirits and enthusiam are, and where their intellectual energy is. James Daly
Every portfolio benefits from bonds; they provide a cushion when the stock market hits a rough patch. But avoiding stocks completely could mean your investment won’t grow any faster than the rate of inflation. Suze Orman
I used to go to Vegas and play the horses, and then I realised how ridiculous that was. There is no winning in gambling, but there is on the stock market. Josh Brolin
First, his job approval ratings have been trending down for many months, a trend that has accelerated in recent weeks as the war on terrorism has been supplanted in the public’s mind by corporate scandals, stock market declines, and a growing sense of economic insecurity. Thomas E. Mann
Anyone who thinks there’s safety in numbers hasn’t looked at the stock market pages. Irene Peter
I will never be in the stock market. It’s just gambling. I’m a gambler, but I’ll gamble on the practicality of things. Jeremy Renner
Stock market corrections, although painful at the time, are actually a very healthy part of the whole mechanism, because there are always speculative excesses that develop, particularly during the long bull market. Ron Chernow
Anybody who plays the stock market not as an insider is like a man buying cows in the moonlight. Daniel Drew
There is a disconnect between the performance in stock market and the performance in many companies. John Paulson
If stock market experts were so expert, they would be buying stock, not selling advice. Norman Ralph Augustine

Samsung Electronics, just one of scores of subsidiaries, accounts for close to 15 percent of the total shares in the South Korean stock market. But you don’t need to know these figures to get a feel for Samsung’s hold on the country. Kim Young-ha

We have this culture of financialization. People think they need to make money with their savings rather with their own business. So you end up with dentists who are more traders than dentists. A dentist should drill teeth and use whatever he does in the stock market for entertainment. Nassim Nicholas Taleb
The stock market has an insidious effect on C.E.O.s’ moods, because of its impact not just on their companies but on their own bank accounts. James Surowiecki
My father was a person who always allowed me to do what I wanted but he told me you want to go to a stock market, first get yourself qualified.

For those of us in the financial world, Black Friday has a strong negative connotation, referring to a stock market catastrophe. Mark Skousen
Actually, one of the better indicators historically of how well the stock market will do is just a Gallup poll, when you ask Americans if you think it’s a good time to invest in stocks, except it goes the opposite direction of what you would expect. When the markets going up, it in fact makes it more prone toward decline. Nate Silver
Big money is made in the stock market by being on the right side of the major moves. The idea is to get in harmony with the market. It’s suicidal to fight trends. They have a higher probability of continuing than not. Martin Zweig
I’m quite bullish. We’re coming up on year 15 of a flat stock market. Historically that’s a pretty good sign. So I’m not a hedge-fund manager but if I was I think I’d be feeling pretty good. Marc Andreessen
I am not in the stock market. I am beholden to no one in what I do. If I spend billions on a fashion show, I spend billions. It’s not public. And if I am in the stock market, I am obligated to account for things, and to show what the business is doing. Giorgio Armani
One of the very nice things about investing in the stock market is that you learn about all different aspects of the economy. It’s your window into a very large world. Ron Chernow

That feeling in the dressing room after you win – nothing comes close to that. You can’t get that in any other career. Maybe in the stock market back in the ’80s when people were making tons of money, maybe they felt something similar. Maybe. But look at the market now. Nothing gives you that emotion like sports. Nothing. Am I wrong? Paul Coffey
An interesting thing happened in 1989, right as I was graduating: the stock market crashed and really changed the landscape of the art world in New York. It made the kind of work I was doing interesting to galleries that wouldn’t have normally been interested in it. Matthew Barney
When you are an entrepreneur, you have founded your own firm, it is so easy to find that you exist – you are the main shareholder of your company; it is very easy to look at the stock market position of your company to know how rich you are. Thomas Piketty
Recent economic data shows that our economy is robust, growing and headed in the right direction. The numbers don’t lie. Americans are currently enjoying falling gas prices, low unemployment, increased job creation, and a stock market that has reached an all-time high. J. D. Hayworth
I am not criticizing investing in the stock market; I am an investor. Grace Napolitano
I never attempt to make money on the stock market. I buy on the assumption that they could close the market the next day and not reopen it for five years. Warren Buffett

The studio system reminds me of the stock market. Bill Forsyth

The stock market lives in the present. I live for the unseen. David Steward
The stock market to me was like a video game. When it went off, it was like turning the game off. It wasn’t something I’d think about until I’d turn the machine on again. Jo Nesbo
I really believe that you cannot use the stock market as a proxy for the economy. Howard Schultz
In history, the evidence is overwhelming: Stock market bottoms happen, and then stocks jolt upwards while the economy keeps getting worse – sometimes by a lot and for a long time. Kenneth Fisher
Stock market bubbles don’t grow out of thin air. They have a solid basis in reality, but reality as distorted by a misconception. George Soros

History speaks pretty clearly that the markets do better with Democrats. Republicans’ ideas of what constitutes fiscal responsibility simply are not good for the stock market. Democrats have many tendencies, but one of them is to look after the workers, and actually that tends to be good for demand and good for markets. Jeremy Grantham
I found the stock market very intriguing because prices used to fluctuate, I used to wonder why the price fluctuates. Rakesh Jhunjhunwala
Facebook is like the Internet: a large company and an application. Bitcoin is a protocol for decentralisation, so you could build a decentralised company on top of it, a stock market. It’s an Internet of ownership, so it’s not quite a direct comparison. Tyler Winklevoss
The data strongly suggest that very good years in the U.S. stock market are followed by more good years. Barry Ritholtz
Part of my advantage is that my strength is economic forecasting, but that only works in free markets, when markets are smarter than people. That’s how I started. I watched the stock market, how equities reacted to change in levels of economic activity, and I could understand how price signals worked and how to forecast them. Stanley Druckenmiller
I grade my stocks. I’m what they call a quant, one of the geeks of the stock market. Louis Navellier
The guy that just arranges things so that the stock market holds up is nobody in my – in my estimation. James Stockdale
When the weather changes, nobody believes the laws of physics have changed. Similarly, I don’t believe that when the stock market goes into terrible gyrations its rules have changed. Benoit Mandelbrot
China frequently confounds stock market prognosticators because it has a penchant for straying markedly from other broad global indexes year-by-year over the decades – even from emerging markets. It’s hit or miss. Kenneth Fisher
Never invest emergency savings in the stock market. Suze Orman
One of the funny things about the stock market is that every time one person buys, another sells, and both think they are astute. William Feather
Whenever I see a stock market explode, six to 12 months later you are in a full blown recovery. Stanley Druckenmiller
Some calamities – the 1929 stock market crash, Pearl Harbor, 9/11 – have come like summer lightning, as bolts from the blue. The looming crisis of America’s Ponzi entitlement structure is different. Driven by the demographics of an aging population, its causes, timing and scope are known. George Will
The main purpose of the stock market is to make fools of as many men as possible. Bernard Baruch
Everyone has the brainpower to follow the stock market. If you made it through fifth-grade math, you can do it. Peter Lynch
Even from the very beginning, I didn’t put any money in the stock market. Trey Parker
The reality is that business and investment spending are the true leading indicators of the economy and the stock market. If you want to know where the stock market is headed, forget about consumer spending and retail sales figures. Look to business spending, price inflation, interest rates, and productivity gains. Mark Skousen
I don’t invest in the stock market. I did it a long, long time ago when I was really young, and I got involved in all the investigations and all the prosecutions, and I felt it was better if I didn’t make individual investments. So I’m invested in funds, but not in individual – not in individual stocks. Rudy Giuliani
Do I want to see people take their Social Security payments and put them into private accounts, open up an eTrade account and go into the stock market? Absolutely not. Sean Duffy
