Corry school tax cuts not gifts millage and capitol doubt

Public influence fades as institutional trading grows
A Corry Evening Journal article notes 26 million shareholders exist but their power is limited. Institutions and intermediaries on the NYSE now account for 41 percent of share volume in early 1969, while individuals drop to about 35 percent. The shift shows rising institutional power and shrinking impact of individual investors. The piece cites dollar volume, with institutions capturing 46 percent versus 29 percent in 1980. It traces the decline of individual influence from 1960 through 1969 and onward, framing the public as a moving target rather than a unified force in market dynamics.
