Definition

Among the users of Reddit's r/WallStreetBets subreddit, investors who sell a stock at the first sign of trouble are referred to as paper hands. While selling a stock in response to a price dip is sometimes the right call, r/WallStreetBets users view paper hands as weak, unprincipled investors, who don't have the fortitude to weather market swings.
