It is evident that people migrate their assets to which gives good yields. Those who holds position in stocks at the time of bull run consider themselves as long term investors. But that won't last longer. Whenever the fed comes up with good bond yield followed by the inflation, these long term investors becomes short term investors and sell all their positions to build new positions in government bonds. This is swing. Wherever they see big number, they switch. But this is not how an actual investor do. He invests and stands still, may be even for decades. At the end of his tenure, we call him successful and study him. But the only thing that we see different there is a simple factor of patience. He never swings with the news, but stick with the guts.
There are two ways you can look at it. one is dangerous to yourself and the second is to others. In both cases, the only difference is where the fear is directed. Because with fear, you can do many things and make people do things for you. but once the fear is gone, then you won't necessarily get the desired outcome. Fear is only a motivator. It won't stay for long. Either you must increase the fear or find an alternative means.
