I agree, this is a bull trap in a bear market that isn't finished yet.

Until 1994. I lost so often while trading stock, I thought doing the opposite of what ever I was doing would get an investor rich.

I was holding stocks for an average of 5 months.

Then I switched to holding MSFT for 5 years, I started making money instead of losing money.

I have been in a major position in GOOG since 2004 and a major position in AMZN since 2012.

Over 10 years AMZN has beat GOOG, AAPL, META, and MSFT....but getting nowhere over the last 3 years.

I know day traders and future traders... that seems like racetrack betting to me.
