Maybe it sounds like a cliché. Maybe it is one. Doesn't really matter, but the market is a great teacher. Human behavior, psychology, mental strength, fear, hope, greed. You name it. I'll use $NBIS, $CIFR, $AAOI and similar names as examples. Just a few months ago, these were attractive stocks. People sharing research were thanked for their work. Everything was great. Prices were going up. Fast forward a few months. Now the stocks are pure shit. The same people sharing research are suddenly clown ape grifting degenerates who know nothing about the market. Everything is terrible. Prices are going down. Of course, fundamentals change, and research can be wrong. There's nothing wrong with questioning someone's thesis. But if you're judging the quality of someone's research based on a few months of price action, maybe the clown you're looking for is the one staring back at you from your bathroom mirror.

Maybe you can name a more important chart, but for me it is banks. As long as $KBE stays above the pre-GFC peak, this bull market is alive and well. Should this break below, that'll be a clear warning something is wrong. But this nearly 19 year base and major breakout is another clue the secular bull market is still with us.
