Ah, I think that's a quite different aspect than the comment you were replying to was referring to, though.

There definitely still are people that expect the "rocket to start any minute now", and a lot of those might also believe that they were stopped from making a ton of money by evil forces -- that might be loosely comparable to a cult like QAnon. But that doesn't mean that there aren't some reasonable questions to be asked about the strange occurrences on the stock market last week.

Yeah probably, it was just what immediately struck my mind.

As far as strange occurrences, I doubt we’ll ever have a satisfactory answer given how much of the market is now run by black boxes.
