Zoom out. That's the whole point of this post, you have to zoom out more. I can't think of any market that doesn't have this pattern. Because after inflation, it costs more dollars for gas, food, home, and any stock. If any market is a flatline when things go up in price, then it went down equally, kind of like most people's work compensation rate. It either does not immediately go up, or it goes up at a lower percentage.

Even shitcoins move up, just at a lower ratio, which is the modern trending to zero.

Yes, in case you weren’t aware; some stocks do stay flat over time (losing money, as you said), and others actually go down over time (also losing money). So you can’t just “zoom out” in every scenario….
