Old Shop Gold taught me another lesson today. I thought the gold concept would hold up, but it opened low, rose halfway, and then fizzled out, down more than 3%. I’m really speechless. In this market, institutions are soaring, while retail investors are holding on nervously every day, and even medium- and short-term trades are exhausting. The logic of price hikes is sound, but the short-term volatility is too brutal. The upper echelons are cutting 韭菜 (retail investors) under the guise of confidence—it really tests your patience.
