When you’re bored of the market, that’s usually when it’s time to buy.
Excitement = tops.
Boredom = bottoms.
It’s counterintuitive, but it makes sense. When CNBC is running hot takes, when your neighbor is bragging about Dogecoin, when Discord is on fire — that’s usually froth. But when nothing is happening, when charts look like flatlines, when even the Twitter spaces go quiet — that’s the stealth phase of compounding.
The best opportunities often slip in under the radar, when nobody’s paying attention. It’s in the lull that accumulation happens, strategies quietly work, and value builds.
So the next time you yawn at your portfolio, smile — it might be quietly compounding in your favor.
