      Fear. There’s a Greed/Fear index. Never buy in greed. Buy in fear. Obviously carries a great deal of risk but if the sun keeps coming up in the morning it’ll work itself out eventually.

      Our capitalist society legally obligates corporations to maximize share holder return at all costs.

      If they don’t, the shareholders sue the corporation they own, and win.

      It’s not “greed mode” it’s not even that they’re always in that mode.

      It’s like a fucking George Foreman grill, there’s no switches or modes. If it’s plugged in, this is what’s happening. There’s no way to have the system plugged in and not doing this

      Like if someone turned on a light switch, and then asked why the room gets brighter every time they turn the switch on. Everything is working as designed…
