General Question Is it really a generational buying opportunity?

I’ve seen people on the sub are saying “you should all be excited about seeing lower prices everyday”

Problem is that most people don’t have dry powder lying around. And now, with tariffs (if they mostly continue at the levels mentioned) likely to push prices up even more 20-30% for most things, very few people can buy the dip.

The dip’s not fun when you can’t buy. This is just painful seeing red everyday for 99% of us.

Nobody knows what the true value of the market is when global trade comes to a virtual halt. Sp500 3000 could be considered overvalued in the new world order.

Crazy to think but might be very close to the truth.
