The US stock market has been on an upward trend for the past 100 years, but not many have been able to make money in it, as human greed is amplified by the stock market.
Currently, the scale of gambling in the US stock market is unprecedented: the asset ratio of leveraged long ETFs to short ETFs has reached 11 times, the highest level on record.
This year's gap has widened twofold, almost double that of the peak market frenzy in 2021. I've heard that some people are mortgaging their homes and using high leverage to go long on US stocks. Greed has never been so intense.
Are retail investors going crazy? Individual investors are showing extraordinary confidence in the US stock market: 46% believe that the likelihood of a market crash in the next six months is less than 10%, the highest level since June 2006. Since October 2022, the S&P 500 index has risen by 50%. However, investors also believe that the stock market has been overvalued since shortly after the dot-com bubble burst in April 2000. Is market sentiment soaring to delightful heights?
If retail investors are going crazy, then the institutional investors are delighted. The greedier one is, the more cautious one must be. Currently, the cryptocurrency market is greatly influenced by the US stock market; if the US stock market crashes, the cryptocurrency market will be no exception. At this time, operations must be especially cautious. One can choose to lie flat and observe, avoiding risks landing on one's head. $BTC #美财政部称BTC“数字黄金”
