This is why you don't rely on broken clocks to tell you the time!

Are you implying the market will go up ad infinitum?

The "race to the bottom" (to devalue fiat currency and drive inflation) is a big reason why stocks, gold, real estate, and bitcoin are valuable to hold. The market will definitely go up ad infinitum, since that is the policy of all central banks.

It’s just a take on the old, “They predicted twelve of the last three crashes.”
If you can’t act on predictions they’re not meaningful.

In the AI era, you just spin up 1024 bots making substack posts prophetizing the future. That's ten binary predictions. Delete the 1023 that fail. Keep the one account that perfectly "predicted" the future.

I rather have one extreme win than 100 smol wins that get evaporated once the market crashes. There’s an expression that goes ”Eating like a chicken, shitting like an elephant”. That’s the beauty of puts.

Down 15%... so far
Can you really call it "right" if the market goes up 40% before eventually going down 15%?
