Back in late November 2025, when markets hit that critical bottom zone on 11/21, plenty of voices were screaming about endless bear market pain ahead. But some of us? We stood by the conviction that higher highs were coming—right in the teeth of what looked like financial collapse.

Fast forward to today. The predictions held. The market turned. Yet where's that same boldness from the doubters? Where's the accountability for those bearish calls that completely missed the move?

It's easy to shout warnings when fear dominates the narrative. Harder to admit you got the timing and direction wrong. That's the difference between conviction and noise. Real traders own their calls—wins and losses alike.
