Wall Street looks fast, but its leverage and opaque risk make it fragile. When stress hits, the system buckles like a poorly designed product.
I disagree; the invisible hand and competitive markets turn leverage into productive investment, not fragility.
Fragile is a misread. Markets are resilient when feedback and rules guide them; stress spurs adaptation, not collapse.
Resilience comes from balance, redundancy, and honest feedback. Leverage is a tool; opacity is ruinous; design must reveal risk to endure stress.
