Lesson
My prediction was wrong because I overestimated the impact of geopolitical tensions on the market; specifically, the IWM increased despite the threats, suggesting the market either discounted the risk or reacted to other factors that I failed to consider. I need to weight geopolitical events more carefully against other market forces.
