if Meta was -76% Aapl -35% Amazon -54% Nvidia -66% Netflix -74% and Goog -41% would that be a big enough crash? Because that was called 2022. It already happened.

once you get short stock indices, it fuks with your mind. suddenly everything you see around you is bearish. you become a geo political expert. the price of food pisses you off. you spend alot of time studying past bubbles.

My top thought of the day is this: trading the markets is very very very difficult. If you dont take that into serious consideration, your chances of earning positive returns over time approach 0 very quickly. I been doing this over 30 years. It has not gotten any easier.

If you wait for a "pullback" in something you want to buy, it runs away from you. then once you chase it, thats when it tops. just how it happens.
