● BRIEFING COMPLETE FULL DISPATCH BELOW ↓

igeons flock. They fight over the same crumbs on the sidewalk because they are afraid to leave the concrete.

Seagulls venture out. They understand the ocean.

The Psychology of the Crowd

  1. Denial: "It's just a correction."
  2. Anger: "Why isn't the Fed saving us?"
  3. Bargaining: "I'll sell when it gets back to break-even."
  4. Depression: "I'm never investing again."
  5. Acceptance: (This is when we buy).

We are currently between stages 1 and 2. The crowd is angry. The Seagull is patient.
