Individual investors are cashing in on market dips, pouring a whopping $155 billion into U.S. stocks this year despite shaky markets. Turns out, their "buy low" strategy is paying off—big time.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just a fluke—it’s a sign that everyday investors are getting savvier (or luckier) with market timing. While pros often dominate headlines, this surge shows how retail traders are shaking up Wall Street’s old playbook. And if this trend holds, it could mean more volatility—or opportunities—ahead.
