I was just reading an article last night from September 2020 explaining in detail why the market will crash 40% imminently.  A year later ... nope!  It does feel like since I really started investing last March, there's been articles full of doom & gloom available at any given time.

Events like the tech bubble or GFC cause that.  It leaves some investor scar tissue until you come up with a new round of investors to help climb the next wall of worry.  I just try to determine if we are in the top or bottom 20% of the valuation band and apply some common sense.  I actually think it is almost always OK to invest in speculative assets.  Your allocation percentage is what makes or breaks you.
