The interesting question isn't who sold.
It's who was willing to buy.
Periods of peak fear often create opportunities for long-term investors, but only if the underlying fundamentals remain intact.
History has shown that institutional investors often step in when sentiment becomes extremely negative—but that doesn't guarantee an immediate rebound.
Extreme pessimism can mark an important turning point.
The key is separating temporary panic from permanent deterioration.
That's where the biggest opportunities are often found.
