This is a textbook distinction, but when I look at my nasdaq and crypto candles, they all have the same 3-year profile, crypto just feels like it’s 1.5x leverage but that’s it. If stock market is all about production and long-term investment, then it shouldn’t bounce up and down with fear waves. The sibling commenter is right, just from the charts it seems at least 66% of “investors” are short-term players and no forward-looking company will (to my limited understanding) build a long-term strategy around these volumes. I mean, they will, but that only confirms the idea?


Of course stocks should jump around a lot too.

The stock price represents likelihood of future earnings. That's going to be influenced by a bunch of things not in financial reporting.
