Explanation for the chart

This chart explores how investors usually feel during a market crash. Market crashes follow patterns, not just in prices but also emotions. The classic emotional cycle during a crash looks like the table above. Happy first, desparation and panic later and as the market recovers, investors seem healed and hopeful too.

But one question that arises is what makes investors happy about a crash if they know they will be sad later?

Even though crashes look scary, experienced investors remain calm. They know what comes next and what to do when other inexperienced investors start panic selling

1. Stocks become “on sale”

When prices fall, high-quality companies' stocks become cheap compared to normal times.
Smart investors love buying great stocks at a lower price or discount

2. Opportunity to build long-term assets

History shows that markets always recover
So buying during crashes leads to leads to profit during recovery

3. Rebalancing works Better

During crashes investors can:

• buy more of undervalued stocks
• sell less affected one
• and prepare for the bounce-back

This improves portfolio strength. Investors predict which industries bounce-back and buy stocks from companies accordingly at a lower price. When the market bounces back, they sell these stocks at the normal rate which will be higher than ever since the market has recovered.

4. Emotional Advantage

Most investors panic → they sell low.
Experienced investors stay calm → they buy low.

So a crash separates:
Fear-driven beginners, and
Strategic investors who stay patient.

5. They Know the Recovery Gives Massive Gains

If you buy at the “bottom,”
the recovery phase multiplies your returns later.

That’s why seasoned investors don’t fear crashes —
they see opportunity, not disaster.

📈 Market Recovery Phase

The market has started recovering. Prices are rising again, and long-term investors who stayed calm are now seeing their portfolios grow. Did you see any growth?
