A small, mouse-like animal that lives in cold northern regions. They sometimes migrate in large groups, which can lead to many of them dying. There's a myth that they commit suicide by jumping off cliffs, but it's not true.

Like lemmings, the investors blindly followed the market trend without considering the risks.

レミングのように、投資家たちはリスクを考慮せずに市場のトレンドに盲目的に従った。
