to those who are saying "new buyers are now better off than long term holders": it took me 5 years to finally get over XXXX because even at 10$, 15$, 20$... for some of us it is mighty expensive to accumulate such a position
I'm hearing a lot of "but anyone who buys now will have it better than original buyers back in 2021" and so on...
back in these days I could maybe afford to buy at 5 share increments, today I bought my biggest position ever, 50 shares in one trade
all in all I made over 80 buys over the span of 5 years, avg at around 21$
so if you are a wageslave and only have zero to a few hundred bucks per month to spare it takes a loooong time to get to XXXX even if you heavily bought at the lowest prices
so lets say GME goes to 14$ - 19$ tomorrow, how many people have a spare 14-19k$ to throw at a stock and immediately get to XXXX just like that? in this economy probably not many...
time and pressure...
