Yesterday I warned of a deep pullback, advising to be well-prepared, but it happened so quickly and fiercely that even I was caught off guard. Are we really preparing for a bear market, or is it just a pullback? History often repeats itself in astonishing ways, yet there's always something unexpected in between. If every cycle of bull and bear market were identical, then escaping the peak and bottom-fishing would become simple, but this cycle is even more different from the past.
