An interesting twist has occurred: Elon Musk recently stated in an interview that if given the choice again, he would not participate in DOGE-related matters.
This statement sounds quite ironic. After all, a few years ago, it was his social media activity that repeatedly ignited market sentiment, turning Dogecoin from a niche joke into a phenomenon. Now he says he wants to focus on his own companies and no longer get involved in such things.
This incident is actually worth pondering. Public figures' statements can indeed trigger short-term market movements, but the aftermath often leaves chaos. Many people blindly jump in chasing hotspots, only to end up as bagholders. Musk himself has also begun to reflect on the limits of his influence — in plain terms, calling market moves is easy, but no one can afford the consequences of market volatility.
This serves as a wake-up call to the market: betting investment decisions on one person's words essentially hands over the initiative to others. When someone creates hype, you take on the risks. No matter how you calculate it, it’s not worth it.
Ultimately, the market is your own battlefield. You can refer to information, but the decision-making power must stay in your hands — this is a compulsory lesson for every investor.

Haha, Musk's move is indeed ironic, a perfect example of inconsistency.
It's easy to say nice things, but why was he so excited when he was pumping DOGE?
Now he's passing the buck to others, he's probably already made enough profit himself.
I just want to know what those retail investors who got burned are thinking.
Trust yourself rather than big influencers; this lesson is a bit costly.

Does Musk regret it now? Dude, you didn't say that back then.

Now reflecting? Why did you wait so long? How many retail investors did you cut at that time?

Elon Musk now says this, but it feels a bit too late... Why didn't we think of this when Twitter was being hyped up crazily back then?
If I had known it would turn out like this, why did I do it in the first place? Cutting so many people and still having the nerve to reflect.
Is that all? After a change of tone, he's off to the next trending topic again. Don't pretend to be conscious.

Haha, laughing to death. Do you regret it now when you think about it? Why didn't you do it earlier? It was so satisfying to cut at that time.
But on the other hand, this kind of big shot turning against people and refusing to admit it is always the same routine, which players will never learn.
No matter how nicely it's put, it doesn't change the fact: those who got cut should just complain if they want, and stop expecting any savior.
Follow the trend? Then don't blame the trend for pushing you into the ditch.
This time he admits defeat, which shows some sense, but next time a new hot spot appears, there will still be leek growers rushing forward one after another. It's truly despairing.
