Hopium.

“Winds always favor the trend." Today’s piece of note doesn’t focus on what stock investing or stock trading is. You people know it very well and have your own views and definitions of it, so let’s not discuss it. The main point of discussion is that the word “hopium” is derived from two words, which are hope and opium. This particular word in today’s attention economy plays a pivotal role in running this type of economy indirectly and at the mass level.

People generally engage in stock trading under the influence of others or their expertise, and the same goes for stock investing. But in the long run, with views towards trading, major stakeholders have made huge losses, and in the case of investing, people have made huge profits, but the truth is that the hope of getting more leads to more tension and loss of personal health. Due to this, some people have created bubbles to make excessive money via stock trading or investing. This is only the key factor where people don’t have to work a lot; just simple clicks on trade and book the profit and achieve the lavish life they deserve.



The other way around, that’s how the economy works: one person’s loss is another person's gain, and that is the law of the jungle, wherein the jungle is invisible but animals are playing their roles efficiently by taking our emotions in confidence to kill our hopes by serving us opium. My point is not to conclude that trading or investing is good or bad, but to perform it in excess, which is dangerous for your financial and mental health.

To achieve financial goals, my suggestion is that you personally consult the financial advisers who are registered with proper governed authority, don’t always follow the footprint of gain, always check your risk appetite, and then make rational decisions where your hard-earned money is involved.
