시장은 폭락하지 않는데… 이상하게 더 스트레스가 쌓여요😓

I just buy when the stocks I like go on sale. 🤷

I think your final few sentences sums it up perfectly. Investing is about having the conviction the stand by what you believe in the tough times, allowing yourself not to get greedy in the good times, and on some rainy days, knowing when to cut your losses.

Plus, with a lot of posts in here and other subs I see, often times people are trying to make a quick buck on something vs. actually investing in companies or sectors they believe are going to grow. That to me is gambling, rather than investing, especially when you factor in tax implications on any gains and how high those can scale on short term gains being realized (mine being almost 40%).

But I think having the conviction to make the best decisions for yourself and not letting the outside noise cloud your judgement in that process is certainly very key. In most cases, I do believe it is best to park money in something you believe in and try to forget about it and the market as well for a few months and give it the chance to ride long-term.

Lol couldn’t be me. That’s why I just auto contribute every week and don’t even worry about how the market is doing in the short term

It was running on easy mode for a few months there. Leading up to midterms will be more choppy

lot of times markets dont just turn 180 and drop. lot of times its like this after a ATH and run like this. it will start to teeter but finish green. then it will start finishing flat. then it will eventually go down. the big boys dont exit at ATH at one time. they sell gradually leaving retail with the bag. they sell little by little until we see retail sell heavily then we see bigger red days.

My portfolio just went green.

The stress comes from seeing the gains slowly disappear making you regret not selling.

Obviously not crashing. Just edging to a Greenspan glamour shot on top of a ladder positioned at the edge of a cliff, while autoeroticly asphixiating with a gold fur belt.

This is a great time to be in the market. So much is in sale. So many people looking to ai. It’s uncomfortable because the industries that are becoming important arnt things folks like to research.

Get this fear mongering out of here.

There are two scary things going on right now. The war on Iran and the rise in bond yields (which is tied to the Iran situation).

Other than that, I don’t see much of a reason for a crash.

We had a pullback, way different than a crash. Fear mongers will say "crash" every Monday. Just learn one thing: everything on the internet is absolute fake, fabricated bullshit for clicks and followers, everyone is a scumbag. Make a plan, stick to it, and stay invested.

Feels the same as any other market, but holy shit what is that sentence format?
