Someone in this sub said here, you know we hit bottom when Bill Ackman comes and says sell it all and creates fear (did in 2020). He goes ahead and scoops up stocks cheap right after.
Now he said to go ahead and buy the quality stocks and brushes off fear - with the opposite rule I’d assume these guys are going to unload a bunch of ‘quality’ stocks to retail and creating the story for it.
