Nonsense, sure the market is turbulent right now but all this QE makes it impossible to speculate. Crypto remains intra day volatile albeit not as much as before. BTC doubled in price in what, the last two months?
Btc doubled, while Wayfair stock went x6 for example... I think there is more juice in the stock market, probably better said, there are more pigs to be slaughtered.
My point is that stocks are not trading based on any fundamentals right now. So many people have gotten into stock market. Robinhood traders, trading from mobile phone, moms and pops... Never EVER in the history of mankind could you buy a stock in 5 minutes by swapping your phone, which literally anybody can do.
Name of the game is to rip everyone off their last buck.
Not so long ago, everyone wanted to be a doctor or a lawyer. Lately, kids want to become youtubers and what not. I think in the next years, people will aspire to become traders. It seems so lucrative. You are your own boss, you can trade from a phone on a beach and you make a lot of money. And it's accessible to everybody, everywhere.
It's a perfect trap.
