OR - and hear me out here - the stock market was flooded with retail investors who all thought they were geniuses during a bull market, then as the market flatlined over the last 2 years, suddenly left the market as reality set in and those retail investors learned they weren't outsmarting the market.

I mean, Robinhood went public 2 years ago. GME short squeeze was six months prior. I'd attribute Robinhood losing users two and half years later would more likely be the market cooling - just as Schwab and TD Ameritrade have seen. (TD was just bought by Schwab , BTW).

The stock market is a lot bigger than one blip stock event nearly three years ago. On Wall Street, 24 hours is a lifetime.
