About This Trend

FOMO stands for 'fear of missing out', a psychological concept describing the anxiety or apprehension that one is missing out on social events, experiences, or decisions that might be more rewarding or satisfying than their current activities.

FOMO is currently trending due to its increasing relevance in modern life, particularly in the context of social media, investing, and decision-making. Discussions around managing FOMO in stock trading, such as with the AXS FOMO ETF, and its impact on mental health and shopping behaviors have brought the term into the spotlight. .
