Don't try to go against institutional whales; it's basically a thankless effort. Look at how many words they say in a year? Almost none. While they sit there making market moves, you're just eating dust following along. When they lay out product lines, can you keep up?
The core difference here is that the operational logic is completely on a different level. Institutions are engaged in mergers and acquisitions, industry integration, and big chess moves, while retail investors are still figuring out how much they can make with 5000 yuan. People from two worlds are using completely different tools.
Instead of wasting energy arguing or provoking, it's better to clarify your own position—figure out whether you're playing swing trading or doing long-term allocation. The goal of institutions is to control the market and integrate ecosystems, while retail investors' survival rule should be to choose the right track, control risks, and know when to take profits.
Honestly, this isn't a matter of right or wrong, but a gap in perception and capital scale. Instead of complaining about the world, focus on improving your trading discipline and market insight.

That makes a lot of sense, but I just want to ask, do retail investors have to always stay in the dark?

To be honest, retail investors should recognize their own capabilities and not always think about overtaking on curves.

Wake up, retail investors are just here to be taken advantage of. Stop messing around.

That's right, we need to face reality and not always think about overtaking on curves.

That's right, but I just want to ask, how are we small retail investors supposed to survive?

Exactly right, retail investors versus big players is like eggs hitting a rock
