.com 버블 같은 대폭락이 두렵지 않은 이유 📈

Easier said than actually lived through, especially if you end up laid off.

So many Redditors were confidently "VOO & chill brah 😎" and then April '25 real fear kicked in, with many of the same people then saying, "No you don't understand, this is UNPRECEDENTED" etc etc.

Deep downturns don't happen unless there's genuine widespread fear and real issues at hand.

Yeah no that's major copium. The DCA/Never sell/Always hold/Time in the market/10 best days/If you only bought at tops ignores massive wealth destruction in real terms when you willingly become a liquidity patsy to be harvested like a sitting duck

Those are dreams, you're not dca-ing at 90% down. You're struggling to find a job or provide for your family.

I'm not afraid
To take a stand
Everybody
Come take my hand
We'll walk this road together, through the storm
Whatever weather, cold or warm
Just letting you know that you're not alone
Holler if you feel like you've been down the same road

I really doubt I have major FOMO today since I just came out of my mom’s womb

Who the hell still had $500 per month to invest after the dot com crash?

Oh, and what about those people who don't have 26 years to recover?

The huge caveats to your thesis are *if you're in your 20s, and *if you don't lose your job, and *if the economy doesn't tank, and *if you still have cash to invest, and (perhaps most importantly) *if you have the psychological fortitude to remain confident enough in a crashing market to keep putting your life savings into it.

Ok, now run that from October.

This only works because we have crazy ath right now.

If you are a long term investor, you make a lot more money acquiring shares when they are "cheap" compared to if they are near all time highs. My generation started working during the lost decade. It seems everyone is a 401k millionaire because we bought at flat prices for 10 years and then saw a huge surge in valuation.

I had to laugh last year when so many commenters were just fine and happy buying VOO at $560 a share. But when it dropped below $500, they paused and some even sold out, fearing the worst. That is why you cannot invest with emotion and why a Fidelity study found that dormant accounts outperform active accounts by a wide margin. Truth is most stock pickers don't even beat the indices.

You're forgetting that society will fall apart from climate catastrophe far before the AI industry moons like the internet has, and that all this money will eventually mean nothing.

I am afraid of it, but not now lol. 70% calls 1 month out calls rn, doubled down when SPY was 734 briefly. They are cheap AF, and Iran deal is done as was leaked yesterday with uranium going to russia. Only waiting to announce it when Iran accepts number US planes full of cash they are offering, but they are tough negotiators and want more $. Bubble can't pop without a blow off top, and we had not in yet, we are in the middle
