Even though they are going to be net buyers of stocks for many years to come, they are elated when stock prices rise and depressed when they fall. This reaction makes no sense. Only those who will be sellers of equities in the near future should be happy at seeing stocks rise. Prospective purchasers should much prefer sinking prices.” IfsShouldYearsFallNextSeeingHigherPeriodsReactionsInvestorsEquitySinkingSellersBuyersStock PricePurchasers Author:Warren Buffett
