My theory is that the rise of Robinhood and other trade-from-phone apps have traditional money really scared of a full crash because they don't want retail buying their dip.

Last time we had a crash, most of retail was calling financial advisors to do trades over the phone during the chaos. Now, most of retail does trading themselves instantly while on a bathroom break at work.

Super easy retail trading was already a thing in 2008.

Why would wealthy people be scared of the ~80% of people who literally own less than 20% of all stocks?
