In fast moving markets, the most dangerous mistakes are often the ones investors repeat. That is why a Fortune feature from 2024 on Prospero.ai and our CEO George Kailas remains more relevant today than ever.
At the time, Fortune turned to Prospero to help explain one of the most explosive and emotional trades in recent market history. The 200% surge in Trump Media.
While headlines focused on price action, George delivered a reality check for retail investors. The real risk was never missing the trade. It was falling into the psychological traps that turn conviction into losses.
In the Fortune feature, George highlighted a dangerous trend among retail traders. Political and social echo chambers reinforce bias and remove dissent. Investors begin to believe a stock cannot lose because everyone around them agrees.
At Prospero, we call this flying blind. When you trade what you want to be true instead of what the data shows, you stop being an investor and become prey.
Markets now move faster than ever. Narratives spread instantly. Capital rotates in minutes. The echo chamber effect is more powerful and more dangerous.
The lesson from that Fortune feature still applies. Discipline beats hype. Data beats noise.
George founded Prospero to level the playing field. We put institutional grade tools directly in your pocket.
Stop guessing. Follow the data. Avoid the echo chamber. Build your edge with Prospero.ai. 📊🧠
