Castle Securities: US retail investors are buying the dip at a record pace

Odaily Planet Daily News: Castle Securities analyst Scott Rubner pointed out that retail investors have been "buying the dip" at a record pace this year. Data compiled by Rubner shows that on days when the S&P 500 index falls, retail buying volume is nearly 3.5 times the daily average; "buying the dip" has become the preferred strategy for retail investors in the first half of 2026. This is the strongest dip-buying behavior since the company began tracking such data in 2020, with its scale even exceeding the record set in 2021 during the peak of the "meme stock" frenzy. (Jin Shi)
