What is the stock market? In some people's eyes, it is neither the paradise or the hell. While others say that the stock market is neither a gambling hell or a bank. There are three choices for you to choose: No.1 a gambling hell; No.2 a place where you can fulfill you dreams of being a millionaire; No.3 a psychiatric hospital. All the three phrases were used to depict the Wall Street by a professor. Which will you choose to describe the stock market?

The stock market is the combo. It is a gambling hell. The investors are the gamblers. Sometimes, they can earn very much from the market. Sometimes, they lose all what they have had. Meanwhile, it is another Hollywood. Some of the investors really became the millionaires just one night. Also it looks like a psychiatric hospital. All the investors are crazy. Some lose all his property in the market and choose to jump off the building.

The stock market is filled with people's greed and fearness. Manipulated by their greed, everyone wants to make profits from the market. Once they succeed, they feel anxious tha they will go bankrupt one day. Do not be a slave in the market.

Let's say it gives people hope. Seems like in Shanghai people are even contracting debts to pay their investement on the market. No black thursday in sight for now but some analyst are pessimistic.
This gives people the thrill of gambling, dreaming to become a millionaire, but since you'll lose most of the time you have to go directly to the psychatric hospital: In fact these are stages through which you go since you choose to invest until you lose everything ;-).
More seriously I think that for now the chinese stock market is not stable enough and the regulation of it needs to be improved (it is on the way).
For now it is profitable because it just started there but it may change:

This is it. Do not play with what you cannot control (Choose a good load of money, sure and stable: better for your blood pressure).

I do agree with you. The stock market in China is not stable. We should not be blinded by the present prosperity.
