Financiers & others say UK savers should embrace risk in their investments to get better future returns (& help investment in UK businesses).

But, these well-off investors, advisors & politicians miss-understand the downside risk for those not in as comfortable life positions as themselves.

They might be able to easily weather a loss of savings, but for those with little extra, a loss of slowly accrued savings is devastating - that's why they won' take a higher risk!

Would you?

A growing preference for index (passive) share-investment funds (tracking an index or indexes) means that as they increase their predominance the influence of remaining active investors grows not diminishes.

Movements in the stock market (after initial offers) are generated by active investors preferences & changing sentiment. The passive funds that just 'follow the market' are therefore following decisions of a shrinking number of acitve investors

Q. will this become dangerous?
