IMO, J6P investor doesn't have the basic understanding of markets and valuations. When the markets move against them, they will panic. I read that 50% of NASDAQ's daily volume is non-institutional versus 20% of NYSE's daily volume.

I'm seeing signs that the bigger players are shifting out of technologies and internets. Since many of the J6P investor are trading on margin, the combination of the bigger players rotating out and current prices supported in part by credit is asking for trouble.

What recent indications are there that when the market suffer a downturn that small investors panicked?
