Maybe

Question is what if it does. Would you buy or wait for even lower price?
It's very normal. When price is high. "Wait for it to drop then buy".

When the price drops, no one is actually going to buy.

Then when the price goes up again. "Should have bought."

People all around me are telling me this. For me, I just execute and show them to stop with this mindset.

I don't sell my equities. I buy with the view they will be higher and higher. That's why I buy whenever I have cash excess of my emergency fund. It's only a matter of which of my counters to buy rather than price.

Yup same here. I will only sell if the company starts to see structural problems

There does appear to be price resistance near the $50.00 mark though.

$49.99 and $50.00 is just 1 cent difference. But psychologically it matters to some people. Anyway I also believe in just accumulating more when there's spare cash, especially in a sideways market.

thats why they are called "gamblers" but you are an investor.

Also thats why buying index is the easiest. just buy only. high also buy, drop also buy.

Thank you for the nice words to me. I would say for beginners, they are very price sensitive.
