The unfalsifiable mainstream narrative

If price goes up, institutions were right, get in. If price drops, institutions are accumulating more, get in. There's no market condition under which the conclusion changes.

it sounds like insider knowledge being generously shared. Someone letting you in on what the smart money is doing. That framing is almost always doing more work than the underlying data is.

Institutions accumulate → narrative gets loud and everyone starts screaming "the war is over! Institutions are buying! The four year cycle is broken!"→ retail piles in → institutions have someone to sell to -> the market bottoms in Q4 contrary to the narrative retail was bombarded with for over a year straight
