You are watching the financialization of dopamine.
In 2026, the US market has effectively merged the casino, the brokerage, and the newsfeed into a single interface.
If you think Indian markets are wild, consider that the US has normalized 0DTE (Zero Days to Expiration) options as a retail standard. These are contracts that expire the same day you buy them. It is instant gratification finance. You don't buy a stock for a year; you bet on the S&P 500's price action for the next 4 hours.
