At the end of the day don't feel defeated but be happy.

Be happy. Be happy and fuck it all man. Try your best and if you tried your hardest and did your best. That's all that matters at the end of the day.

At the end of the day nobody is coming to save you, no angels, no pure hearted good people, no cavalry charge that's correct and you only got one life. However, you don't need to let yourself down just always remember you had control over most of the actions in your life.

One day you will look back at your death bed and say fuck man I should've traveled more, made more friends, asked out that girl, and started that business. One day everyone including myself will die and our memories will flash one last time.

However the problems always come when you stop and think that you can never get over something and that life is over because you can't say it's over it's one life so just live it to the fullest and don't beat yourself over it.

So, whenever you feel defeated and in the dirt remember it's all meaningless and shit doesn't matter just live your life and don't over regret shit because at the end of the day nobody will give fuck all or remember you eventually.

TLDR: Don't overthink and don't overbeat yourself in life, just take a deep breath and enjoy the time you have.

Since 11 partially addicted on and off on many types of porn.

Since 11 till 25, no girl has found me attractive or even looked my way. They've called me cute but short.

Many girls used to say they'd rather kill themselves than date me, and I've only gotten guys asking me out; however, I've never been into dudes. Nobody in my life told me I look bad; many said I look cute and above average, but those were dudes.

I never had a girl as a friend growing up. I tried to make myself look good, accomplish goals, make sure I was stable, make sure I became stronger, faster, smarter, and achieved goals in my life, and I've achieved many.

However, I couldn't stop jacking off and going to strip clubs and going to hookers. I never had a girlfriend, but I've done well in my career and even handled multiple other problems and things, and I got up like it was nothing for me and I kept going. I've survived thousands of bad things in my life all alone since a kid. However, I couldn't deal with getting a girl. I had to talk to probably a thousand girls and got rejected each time, and it would always be I have a boyfriend, so I found it easier to work on myself with skincare, and I just ended up making my brain think real-life girls are robots and nothing sexual should connect me with them, so now I keep strictly professional and I just jack off daily.

Eventually I stopped strip clubs and brothels, as I found them too dangerous in case of STIs and a waste of money, and masturbating was an inexpensive hobby and made me feel a relaxation, stimulation, and happiness.

I made sure to keep myself tested and haven't gotten any STIs, and after the last encounter I had, I've completely stopped, as I can't keep my dick hard anymore.

So did I fail or am I ok? I'm able to talk with women and men alike due to my career and jobs and businesses I've taken, and also because I've just continued with this mindset.

I'm most likely going to die alone, but that's fine with me; I'll just keep working on myself and trying, and I know eventually I'll reach my goal of a dog and a house and a car. I don't need anything crazy.

In my opinion and mindset, I don't really feel like I failed, and now I can't even feel anything with girls, and even if a girl touches me, it makes me feel like it's wrong somehow, and I have an instance to jolt back, as I've kissed girls but never held hands with one before.

To the people who have hurt me throughout my life since a child to adult.

I want them to keep hurting me. Not because I like to get hurt or enjoy it. When I analyzed and looked back in my life at every action since a kid and some even tried to hurt me badly. However those challenges I look back on every single bad thing and bad thing that happened to me and that pushes a fire. I write every brutal hard thing that happened and it pushes me over the edge on things. Every bad thing and when I was fully isolated fully without help.

It makes me think things are an illusion and challenges are not challenges but things I can eventually beat and conquer. Knowing I'll be alone forever and all I will get are challenges that shape me and my hardship, it will make me only stronger and be able to withstand them all alone and eventually come out on top.

I'm 24 right now but I'm going to keep climbing up I've done already so much but I want to keep going. I've been burnt out multiple times, ended up in the hospital due to overworking in business, jobs and degrees. I hit many other things other people simply back out due to the mental stress and physical hardship that I just think all the way back in my life.

I've recorded it all and will keep recording anything that's really harsh and especially where groups attack me at once mentally or physically. It'll keep me going upward.

I will keep winning, and even if I get old I have the same hardships, mentally and physically since a kid which will motivate me to keep pushing harder until I have left this planet. No matter how weak or overwhelmed I feel I'll push until it make it and I will owe nobody anything except God.

What kind of roach is this found it in hotel a few days staying there.

My dumbass didn't throw it out as I asked Google and it said it was an outdoor roach. It's survived many days inside now and big mistake. I'm in Czech Prague if that helps around the woodlands area.

I can't find it anymore after this morning and I'm panicking now and should've thrown it out right away.

Also, if it was an outdoor roach I'm again feeling bad I didn't chuck it out earlier.

Have you guys just given up completely and pivoted to something else.

Like I gave up I tried and did different methods and now I just focus on getting a home and a dog and that's it.

Well well well.

Didn't I say go all in a bit ago. Got downvoted like hell in the comments by a little pep.

Btw little perma bear even my google buy that you said is different is fucking up. Why because fucking AI is the future with much profit coming in both software and chips.

It's bull season baby!! This shit is going to the fucking moon! 200 here we come. Especially with AMD er and SNDK.

The bears know with capex spending still high it's going to be a beat out for sure! Remember the posts I made even before the last one. How lower can it go if earnings keep doing huge beats more than analysts expect.

This buy was common sense. The easiest money you could've made! Driven by pure fud and speculative of he said she said with no backed numbers whatsoever. And now where are the perma bears.

I am going to say it one last time just like my previous posts.

I sold soxs right before the pump, if you think I'm lying go look at my previous posts. There is a bull rush coming sure there is a war but how lower can semi stocks be driven when demand is high and even Apple projected will stay high or higher pricing at least for many years. Just yesterday axti another semiconductor company reported blockbuster earnings. So ask yourself if earnings keep coming high these companies accumulate so much cash and the stock keeps driving down what will happen eventually.

Saw this guy who shorted the market in 2022, https://www.instagram.com/reel/DbdJgFpgRZD/?igsh=eXY0cW02NzgxY3A0. No offense to him but this is what happens when you go perma one way or the other while companies are reporting stellar earnings. Even he knows not to short AI stocks as I'm telling you again they have much to run if earnings keep coming out well.

Semiconductors are down however the earnings are coming in hot and there is no slowdown YET. Companies with cash can buy back stocks if they go too low especially if they believe the price gets too low. Much fud is being spread around uncertainty like China stocks and war will never end but unlike earnings which have solid backing this is not a GUARANTEED fact. So aren't earnings but there is HIGHER chance that earnings don't stop to be high.

NFA, do what you'd like not SOXL to 500 though that price is crazy.

Don't short the bottom, short the top. I've made this mistake before.

Is the selling endless, answered. Please put your thoughts and comments below.

No, the selling is not endless. It feels endless right now because the market is in the middle of a brutal, panic-driven "liquidity wash," where institutional algorithms and fund managers sell completely regardless of individual corporate performance. [1, 2, 3]

You are completely right to point out the Iran war. The recent military escalation—including new retaliatory strikes, Trump declaring the U.S. will give Iran a "beating," and oil spiking back toward $90+ a barrel—is triggering an institutional panic-button response. When war headlines break, a standard automated Wall Street playbook takes over: "Sell beta (high-volatility tech), buy energy and defense". [4, 5, 6]

If companies like [SanDisk](https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/quote/WDC/) and Micron keep putting up blockbuster earnings, here is how the bottoming process plays out, and why the selling will eventually stop. [7, 8]

------------------------------

## 1. Valuation Disconnects Have a Hard Floor

Right now, the stock prices are crashing while earnings are skyrocketing. Mathematically, this causes the Price-to-Earnings (P/E) ratios to compress at a historic pace. [9, 10, 11, 12]

*

* Micron (MU) has plunged from over $1,200 to $730, dragging its forward P/E ratio down close to 16x.

* SanDisk cratered 31% in a single week despite crushing its EPS estimates by 60%.

* When a high-growth tech stock begins trading at a multiple lower than a slow-moving utility company or consumer staple, it creates an arbitrage opportunity. Large institutional "value" funds and private equity firms will step in to buy up the massive free cash flows on the cheap, putting a structural floor under the stock. [8, 13, 14, 15]

*

## 2. The Mechanics of the "Capitulation Phase"

In a market panic, selling follows a predictable three-step cycle:

*

* Step 1 (Reasonable Pullback): Investors take profits because valuations are a bit high. [16]

* Step 2 (The Macro Shock): War threats and China competition fears emerge. Quantitative hedge funds automatically dump memory chipmakers to hedge against energy-driven inflation. [5, 17]

* Step 3 (Forced Liquidation): This is where we are right now. Retail investors panic, margin calls are triggered, and leveraged traders are forced to sell their good assets (like performing chip stocks) just to cover losses elsewhere. [18, 19, 20, 21, 22]

*

This third phase always feels endless, but it is actually the sign of a correcting market cleaning out speculative leverage.

## 3. Corporate Share Buybacks Will Stop the Bleeding

When stock prices drop too far below what a company's leadership knows they are worth, the corporations themselves step in as the ultimate buyer.

*

* SanDisk has zero long-term debt and holds a $6 billion stock buyback authorization.

* As the market continuously dumps the stock, corporate management can use their mountain of AI-generated cash to aggressively buy back and retire their own shares at a massive discount. This artificially shrinks the share supply, pushes EPS higher, and stops the downward momentum. [13, 15, 23]

*

------------------------------

## What Changes the Trend?

The selling will stop and reverse when one of two things happens:

  1. The Geopolitical Risk Premia De-escalates: A cooling of tensions regarding the Strait of Hormuz or a stabilization in oil prices will instantly cause capital to rotate back into tech. [6, 24]

  2. The "Mag 7" Cloud Earnings Confirm AI Demand: If the rest of the tech giants reporting this earnings season issue heavy infrastructure guidance, it proves to the market that Micron and SanDisk will face an extended chip undersupply lasting through 2027, rendering China supply worries irrelevant for the medium term. [8, 25, 26]

Please be honest about where you actually see this ending. Unlike the 2008 bubble this time these companies have cash on hand and it's growing not going down. The 2008 bubble was caused by fake earnings reports as well. I remember going over the dot com bubble case in accounting class and their financial documents as the documents were forged incorrectly with no auditors properly looking over financial statements.

However now their proper backing with real demand and verification of numbers. Major analysts read these reports for themselves.

With soxl crashing did you guys buy SNDQ or Sox's?

Both were good picks. I regret not picking up SNDQ could've made way more money.

How are bulls this weak?

In less than a month you've all been wiped out almost completely. Your biggest bull stock.

How can the bulls be this weak.

u/Puzzled_Butterfly814 — 3 months ago

With semis dropping like bricks.

With semis stocks going down like hell and no indication of a future reversal coming. What stocks are going to drive up the SPY in the future it's almost three months and it hasn't made a new all time high.

Which sector?

Also, looks like semis might never come up again properly so it might be a good time to start shorting them?

If you knew life wasn't good going your way and you had nothing to lose.

If you never had a good moment or peak in your life and you felt it never worked out. If you felt like a loser throughout your whole life.

Would you just let it all go. If you felt forced to live in this life and didn't want to but had to be forced. If you had nothing to lose and nobody to lose and never felt a connection with people. And you just didn't like people in general throughout your life because whenever you sought connection or tried to get connection from them you got more hurt than anything else since childhood.

If you didn't want to be good anymore because being good never brought you anything meaningful, happiness, and feeling safe but it did bring you a lot more pain.

What would you do in this situation?
