The most anti-human thing about this (US stocks) is:

When it drops 20%, you don’t dare to buy.
When it drops another 20%, you’re even less willing to buy.
Then it rallies back—you start regretting it.
In the past two years, it’s been painfully obvious:
SK Hynix, the AI HBM leader—after the pullback, it keeps making new highs.
MU, Micron—the market has been shouting that memory is topping out every day, but AI demand pulls it back.
SNDK, storage reversal—its stock price keeps correcting upward all the way.
LITE, the AI optical module chain—when it falls, nobody pays attention; when it rises, everyone’s chasing.
CRWD—after a big drop, it still makes new highs.
DELL—AI server cycle—pullbacks are just opportunities.
SOXL is even more outrageous: a triple-leveraged semiconductor ETF—when others panic, you dare to buy, and the rebound is faster than people’s emotions can recover.
The biggest risk in the US stock market isn’t actually the downside.
It’s when it’s falling and your hands are shaking.
