But in this breakdown, we cut through the theatrics and explain why markets sell off, why it’s normal, and why overleveraged “too clever by half” traders always learn the hard way. From Fed hawkishness to global debt jitters, the noise comes and goes, but the long-term fundamentals don’t. After 30 years in the business, the truth is simple: markets rise, markets fall, and disciplined investors win while wannabe day traders flame out.
