It's funny because all of this is true historically speaking. Over the last like 100 years, it has never been a bad time to buy stonk. I think it's understandable that people whose grandparents weren't alive the last time it was a bad idea to buy stonk think that a bad time to buy stonk will never come. Americans have been on easy mode for so long.

Well yeah it's always a bad time to buy individual stonks, as long as you don't have the benefit of hindsight. Gotta stay diversified

It's called insider trading, not hindsight trading.
