Retail market impact describes the effect that individual investors’ collective actions have on asset prices and market trends. This influence is particularly pronounced in markets with high accessibility and lower barriers to entry, such as certain segments of the cryptocurrency market. Retail investors’ buying or selling activity, often driven by sentiment, social media trends, or news, can generate significant price volatility. Their collective behavior can sometimes lead to rapid market movements or contribute to extended trends.
