> basically been free money for the last several months

Can you please not say stuff like that?

You're only calling it "free money" with the benefit of hindsight. And even then, it's still not "free", since you got a big 5% drop in one day.

People are just ill-informed about markets in general, comments like this make it pretty obvious.

"Free money" in a publicly traded market, yeah sure. "Anyone could have seen that fall coming", again, yeah sure.
