When you're living through such a period, ideally you'd enjoy the dips

But before you throw stones, let me explain why.
No, not because, mom, of what great opportunities there will be in the market and how much money you'll make. Not for that reason
But simply because, as the market drops, the closer we are to the bottom.
Simple, right?
The concept of selling is relatively simple.
Someone has to sell to someone who is willing. At some point, buyers disappear.
Buyers step in who consider an asset good at that price, and that's how the bottom is formed.
As long as the market is falling, it means the market hasn't yet agreed whether that asset is worth that price or not.
So, the more the market falls, the faster we reach the point we all want.
