It's down about 7% from December 2021.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

No, it's down 28% from December 3, 2021

Let's keep going. It's up 117% from December 3, 2020.

That's my point, saying "it's up x this year" as a justification to buy it lacks so much context as to be completely meaningless

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Ok it’s up 70 000% from 10 years ago

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

And it's up [undefined] from 20 years ago

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Fuck I should have bought some then

No, it means it's not dead and is still trending up.

Eat downvote (for some reason)

I mean, the joke is being posted in 2023. Losing half in 2023 would mean you were trading not investing.

The joke is also from 2022 when it could be easily true.

The joke only mentions a year.

And then do 10 years

It was 7.9% in February of '22

He might have confused it with interest rates. Not sure what inflation rate is right now, but it was over 7.5% for awhile.
