Gambling or Investing?

Every thing I read about the stock market(s) these days is depressing and worrying. A lot of people say the computers and AI have simply taken us into a new realm where the difference between sophisticated investing and market manipulation happens in a split second and people are never
aware if their pockets are being picked clean.


Here's some discussion on that issue:

I think there are a handful of key issues which are repeatedly discussed: high frequency trading, options, shorting (especially naked), and massive volume of trading by big money players.
