We talk about what that moment felt like and why the most meaningful part was seeing support from the community.
Also, Ari shares how he pulled in $250 in dividend income despite focusing more on high-growth names like UnitedHealth (UNH) and VGT, while Ryne reveals the companies behind his $315 haul—including his first-ever $100+ payment from SCHD.

Why do great companies like Visa (V) and Zoetis (ZTS) suddenly drop? In this episode of The Deep End, we unpack the real reason stocks fall—and why it often has nothing to do with the earnings, dividends, or anything else related to the business.
Note: At around the 1 hour 18 minute mark, we ran into some technical issues that caused the video and audio to get out of sync. Rather than leave in a messy ending, we decided to cut the episode right before the problems started. That’s why the video ends a bit abruptly—we just wanted to let you know what happened. Thanks for understanding, and we’ll be back next week with another full episode!
