They never learn, do they? Perhaps you’ve seen that about 100% of the chatter on /wsb is about one stock and one stock only: BBBY. It’s evident from the volume. BBBY volume is presently running at what the entire stock market’s volume USED to be when I started trading back in the late 1980s.
Let’s start off with a simple fact: out of 100,000 people, you’ll find maybe one true bear among them. There’s hardly anyone that’s ever going to posit a bearish argument about the stock market, because they have no vested interest in doing so. Not the carnival barkers on CNBC. Not the equity-pushers from Goldman Sachs, And, God knows, never, ever from any Wall Street analyst. 365 days out of every year, their message is the same: “Buy, Buy, and Buy some more.”
