What stage of the bull market are my friends and I discussing right now? I will use a more vivid example: you and a girl are in a flirtatious phase, one is being insincere, one is playing hard to get, one has ulterior motives, and one is pretending to be reserved. The flirtatious phase is a beautiful but destined to be short-lived time for two people. I have already explained my views on the market stages, difficulty, and excitement level.
