Too many eyes on one area

[Allen Parker]

Good Evening BP,

Been a member for a few years and have "gotten started" multiple times but always get distracted by the allure and easier money of stocks and crypto. Coming back with more money, a condo, and a wife i feel ive reached a time where my eyes wont wander again. My question to the masses is this: In the stock market GENERALLY speaking (not always) if too many eyes are on one ticker or it is constantly being talked about then its normally safe to say the big opportunity has passed. Having spent the last few days scrolling through the forums looking for areas that fit my price point. Ohio comes up all the time, its real estate agents are everywhere talking it up, a lot of people seem invested in it especially from CA like myself, and i guess my question is. Does anyone else err on the side of caution if an area seems to have all the eyes on it?
