He/she sounds young to me. There's a generation of traders/investors that have never seen a true bear market.
It would go down over the weekend and then start the V if your scenario that will never happen, happens.
Not me, but those are better off. Why even think about a bear market that is never going to happen. Why poison your mind with that nonsense.
The day will come when we can call out @v-shape-0DTE 's MANY claims of up up up. Then when the bear market ends, their day will come when they can tell us all again we were wrong and to praise the V (until that bull market ends). When that happens, can we both say we were right? lol
I mean, sure at some point we will have a red day again where it drop 1%. But so what. The market will be much higher from where it is now when that happens. Next week is going to be wild. Could we actually see QQQ hit 550?
SPX is down this week with only 1/5 green days. 4 red days. It may not be plunging anytime soon, but currently it ain't going higher either. You also evaded the fact that SPX dropped nearly 30 % in 2022. Plenty of people in this thread are bullish in general, but you're something for yourself. LOL. EDIT: 25 minutes left. Maybe we can close green today.
