This is starting to feel like a moral crusade when that investment reasoning is consided meme/speculative arguments. I know retirement planners who manage 200m in asse6s who have been in business for 30+ years who look at the same reasonings as that. You cant really find an undervalued stop without some sort of assumptions. Might as well just buy an index fund.



It is a moral crusade to try to get people to understand risk. I can go all in on TSLA call options and make a killing and think I understand how markets work, but the risk I’m taking on by doing that is ridiculous. I’d like to know how those 30 year experience retirement planners did in 01 or 08. Bubbles happen because investors become comfortable taking huge risks that are unlikely to happen, but when they do they get crushed. Picking up pennies on front of a steamroller.
