This, despite the fact that younger investors were more optimistic about the economy, their incomes, their living situations, and their investments. Millennial investors have been deeply scarred by two life-changing crises in their young lives.

But when it comes to younger investors, I think the scars run deeper than worries about a coming downturn.
