Why can't the U.S. stock market keep falling? What happens when the U.S. stock market drops?
In the crypto world, I've seen all kinds of extreme market conditions. Luna going to zero, FTX going bankrupt overnight, BTC dropping from 69,000 to 15,000.
After switching to trading U.S. stocks, I found something that makes me very uncomfortable: it seems like the U.S. stock market can't fall.
Every time it drops 5%, I think it's going to crash, but a few days later it bounces back.
It drops 10%, and I think this time it's really over, but a month later it hits a new high.
What happens when the crypto market drops? Retail investors panic sell, market makers withdraw liquidity, leveraged positions get liquidated in a chain reaction, and the price keeps falling with no buyers in sight.
