Be bearish then. You come out after a 5% drop and bang your bell the world is ending. It's very likely your hand sitting has cost you more money than calling any potential drop correctly. Plus, like last time you did this, you said you would be scared to buy-in thus capturing from your crystal ball calling.

See you again next time for another prediction. . .

lol, what exactly is the purpose of a "forum", to agree with each other, confirm each other's decisions, and re-tweet the same tweets? Nobody's forcing you to read what I write, so feel free to ignore it if it makes you uncomfortable or ornery.

What if everything makes one ornery? Asking for a friend.

Also, the fact that the world shut down amidst a once in a generation pandemic and the S&P regained what it lost in less than 90 trading days is kind of my point.
Watching this was mind blowing to me. How do the bullish folks explain this?

President Nicolas Maduro has said he plans to move to a fully digital economy this year, following three years of hyperinflation that have prompted the nation’s mint to issue higher-denomination notes that are quickly rendered all but useless. Inflation soared 3,000% in the last 12 months, according to Bloomberg News’s Cafe con Leche Index.

I can't see how this doesn't lift up the stock market for years to come. (watch markets crash down on Monday)
