We are animals who have evolved to find meaning in randomness. This is how our ancestors survived on the African plains, figuring out how to find sources of water from clues, discovering which plants are edible, tracking down animals herds for calories.

So we look to historical trends, or posts from others claiming they have the answer to why this crash happened or why it’s only a temporary dip.

The unpopular truth is no one probably knows why this happened, and no one certainly knows what the future will be, however we all flock to answers, no matter how wrong they are, because we crave stability.
