How it's used
Primarily used in financial contexts to describe the act of buying into an asset that is already experiencing a price surge. It carries a sense of urgency and often implies a risky, impulsive decision driven by fear of missing out. While it can apply to other competitive situations, its most common home is the stock market.
Examples
Seeing the market rising so strongly, do you still dare to jump in?
