Just put your money into stocks! Buying 10 shares of Apple right now would cost $2,000 but once it bounces back to the price it was at before the dip you'd have $2,500! That's a profit of $500 in just a few years!

That's actually a pretty good return, but only helps people with cash lying around, which generally are already rich fucks.

It also assumes this is the bottom. That $2000 could become $1000 and it may take years and years and years to get to $2500 instead.

There is no indication this is the bottom.

It was not the bottom. In fact the bottom would not be discovered until the food riots of 2026.
