It seems like every broad market index (S&P, Nasdaq, DOW) is starting a decline from their second peak in a Double Top pattern. If the pattern holds it won’t be confirmed until support at the trough between peaks is broken again, then it’s likely to go lower from there. Are we in for another year of pain or are there other bullish patterns forming to hope for? 🤔 I’m not familiar at all with market patterns, so feel free to discuss any thoughts on the matter
Hey
ADBE actually did pretty good these past month relative to other tech companies (excluding Nvidia). I suspect this might be due to its new features involving AI like the generative fill took in photoshop. I work in VFX and it is frankly quite incredible. I see new innovations in Image creation with AI, most recently the one where you can costumize text or shapes that the AI replicates, that can be implemented in the future. After effects is also bene

Stories like this feed into certain cult stocks, where users think the "hedgies" are conspiring to keep the stock down, while ignoring the hundreds of millions of new shares issued by the company, looking at you AMC.
