Haha....From ScotTrade Statistics....Majority Subscriber Demos:

Gen Y (born 1983 to 1993, ages 18–29) Gen X (born 1967 to 1982, ages 30–45) 3. Gen Y, Gen X Translate Portfolio Gains into Higher Expectations Though the economic climate continues to spur action among all investors, Gen Yers, followed closely by Gen Xers, are taking the most active and involved role by checking their investments more frequently than older investors. The majority of Gen Y and Gen X, at 77 percent and 69 percent, respectively, check their accounts at least once a week.

Story Highlights

Fifty-five percent of Americans are invested in stock market
That remains down from 62% in early 2008, before the financial crisis
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Although the Dow Jones industrial average has made significant gains since it plummeted in 2009 after the financial meltdown, Americans are no more likely today than they were six years ago to report having money invested in the stock market. Fifty-five percent of Americans report having money invested in stocks, matching what Gallup found from 2009 through 2011, though up slightly from the low of 52% in 2013.
