One has to distinguish the rate of return on investment in equities which is affected by all the volatility of the stock market from the rate of return on real productive investment. That is what I was talking about. The flow rate is not particularly relevant to real investment.

Paul C:

Are you assuming that the stock rate of profit equals the rate of return on
investment
(RRI)? It is the RRI, rather than the rate of profit, which is most
relevant for the
individual capitalist investor.
