“The top 1 percent of all U.S. households
owns 38.3 percent of all stocks. The top 10 percent owns roughly 81 percent. The
bottom 90 percent owns just over 18 percent of the stocks held by households
in the United States (Table 11.5). Fully 50 percent of U.S. households own no
stocks. Even among those who do hold stocks, most own them through pension and retirement funds, where they are not accessible for general use.”
