"stock will become worthless"

I'm thinking the opposite might happen.

If big companies succeed in capturing the knowledge workers market share and transferring all those salaries into their own profits then it will be reflected in the stock prices of those big companies. People, mostly currently rich people, who own those stock will benefit.

Same as it ever was for other forms of automation or job outsourcing. Why would this be any different?
