Looking back at 2025's market performance:



January kicked off strong with $TRUMP and $MELANIA leading the charge. Then? Eleven straight months of consolidation—call it a bear grind, call it a correction, call it whatever you want.

Did we catch any meaningful rallies in between? Honestly feels like we didn't. February through December was basically one long flatline, with sporadic relief bounces that fizzled just as quick.

So the real question: was this the complete cycle, or are we missing something? Market breadth suggests we got the whole picture—the narrative shifted from euphoria to caution, and retail's still waiting for the next catalyst. No hidden pumps, just patience testing.

lol that jan pump was such a classic fake out... watched everyone chase $TRUMP like it was gonna print forever. eleven months of sideways action = institutional accumulation phase or just dead money? reading between the lines, feels more like the latter ngl

Oh no, is January over just like that? Eleven months of lying flat, I'm almost falling asleep. Wait, is there really no rebound opportunity? It feels like everyone is waiting for a savior to appear. This round of retail investors has really been worn out. Can anyone tell me when the next catalyst will come? The excitement from January's TRUMP wave is gone, I thought it would last. Dragging for ten months, my mentality is about to wear out, really testing human nature. Flatline hell, this is the real torment of a Bear Market. So now should I hold firm or decisively exit? I can't figure it out. The whole period from February to December is basically a sleep mode, I can't even wake up.

What the heck, where did the rise in January go? Is it true that it has been flat for a whole 11 months? Bro, I've laid it all out, looking from February to December is like staring at a straight line, it's so torturous. Rebound? Don't joke, it disappeared in an instant, is this really a cycle or just a big pit? Wait, is this really not cutting us for suckers... Retail investors have been waiting for a catalyst until the flowers have withered, who will come to save us? Flat line hell, I choose to believe there will still be a turnaround.

ngl the whole "jan pump then 11 months of nothing" arc is just path dependency playing out exactly how you'd expect... historically precedent suggests retail always gets the timing wrong anyway, so honestly their patience being tested right now? sub-optimal incentive structures at work tbh

Damn, it's another month of dreams, and I'm dreaming for the remaining eleven months. Wait, is there really no rebound opportunity? I feel completely trapped. If I had held onto that wave of $TRUMP, it wouldn't be so painful now. It's just a matter of who can hold on until the next catalyst appears. Eleven months at the breakeven point? I'm completely trapped; this is really testing my mindset. Actually, it's the market choosing people; only those who know how to wait can survive until the end. Where have the brothers who didn't make money in this wave gone? Is there really no hidden arbitrage? After long-term consolidation, it has to rise eventually, otherwise, this is just too hopeless.
