Citadel Securities: US Retail Investors 'Buy the Dip' at Record Pace

CoinFeed June 30 news, Citadel Securities analyst Scott Rubner pointed out that this year, retail investors have been 'buying the dip' at a record pace. Data compiled by Rubner shows that on days when the S&P 500 fell, retail investors bought nearly 3.5 times the daily average; 'buying the dips' has become the preferred strategy for retail investors in the first half of 2026. This is the strongest dip-buying behavior since the company began tracking such data in 2020, and its scale even exceeds the record set during the 'meme stock' (retail investor group-buying stocks) craze in 2021.
