Japan's stock market crashed 12.4%, it's biggest drop ever, and a 25% drop since July.

Global stocks are crashing, and US stocks are being hammered. Premarket looks terrible, with tech stocks bleeding big time.

Bitcoin crashed to 49k, 33% off it's high of 73k.

The faltering US economy and middle east crisis are the main drivers of this fear.

Tech stocks were way overvalued with the hype of AI, and now the bubble is bursting.

The Fed refused to cut rates at its last meeting, and barely suggested that a Sepember cut was on the table.

It seems not many people saw this coming.

This is what happens when you play games and leverage yourself to kingdom come. The party can't last forever.

I havent check much since Monday but so far it seems it was just a small time correction. No?

What i can’t wait to see is the commercial real state market… A few buildings were recently sold in San Francisco and Seattle for a fraction of value… A few trillion are at risk here in the following year or so.

I did not sell any stocks. The next day after the correction. SU opened at 49.15. Within 15 mins it was back to 53. Missed the opportunity on SU. Now it is about 55+. .

What you're suggesting is that sometimes stock prices go up purely by chance, and they could just as easily go down. This is especially true for investors who speculate without any solid reasoning behind their expectations. For example, while it might be reasonable to consider Canadian Tire (CTC.A at $153.86) a strong company, predicting whether its stock price will rise at a given moment is more complex. ( My cat whiskers are twitching and I will say that the probability is that CTC.A will go up from this point )

It’s crucial to not only identify when a stock might increase in value but also when it might decline. Mastery in stock trading involves understanding both upward and downward trends to consistently realize profits. When institutional investors are buying while retail investors are selling, the big financial firms make substantial profits—sometimes in the billions—funding everything from downtown offices to high executive salaries. It's estimated that these institutions generate between $250,000 and $500,000 in profit per employee, which supports their entire staff, including janitors and administrative personnel.

Success in the stock market often hinges on whether you're a strategic thinker who can back up your predictions with evidence, rather than just a speculator making random guesses.

Retail money is not often randomly guessing; they think they're making educated guesses--e.g., predicting North American indices would drop by 10% like the Nikkei did, so sold immediately at the market open to cut their losses, and hope that they would buy back lower at the end of the day or later. Or a lot of them just freak out, fall for the doomsday headlines, and panick sell.

Most stock pickers are essentially experimenting and selecting stocks at random. They might make money on some trades and lose on others, staying in the game as long as they’re making a bit of profit, hoping to improve over time. Some invest in blue-chip stocks and see long-term gains. However, very few of these individuals have a reliable algorithm for consistent profits.
I’m helping a friend who’s building her nest egg. Using my algorithm, I helped her increase her trading account by 200% in the first year. I would often make trades on her computer while laying naked on my stomach with my chin hanging off her bed. She would observe laying naked on top of me with her chin over my shoulder. Recently, she called to say she’d made a mistake: she bought a stock on her own because she noticed my repeated successful purchases of the same stock. This time, however, the stock began to decline. I advised her to sell immediately since the moving average was unfavorable, and to buy back when conditions improved. The time and money lost while the stock was falling could have been invested in another stock with better prospects.
Success in stock trading requires more than just knowing what and when to buy; you also need to know when to sell. A stock that starts to drop significantly (by 20-25%) is often experiencing panic selling from retail investors. During these declines, banks and financial institutions purchase the undervalued stocks, leading to substantial profits. By developing expertise in stock picking and learning to time your trades well, you can significantly outperform those who rely on random selection.

A lot of them are not picking at random, but picking and timing believing they can outsmart the market... e.g., "oh , X stock is a bargain , so I'm gonna buy " ..this implies this individual knows something that the market yet doesn't.

Without understanding valuation , economic indicators and customer trends and sentiments it's extremely difficult to predict stock movements. Luck plays an extremely significant part in selecting stock based on trends. Generic advice on how to pick sticks will essentially end in doom and gloom. And if someone listens to stock advice from TERB, please think with your "real head" atleast in money matters.
