Dark Horse Fund mainly has the following four characteristics: First, its operating style is flexible. Operation style is an extension of fund investment concept. If a fund can invest flexibly and selectively according to market conditions, it will initially have the potential of a dark horse fund. Generally speaking, the funds of large fund companies are relatively stable, but the operation of second-and third-tier funds is relatively flexible.
Second, the ability to invest in scientific research is outstanding. The fund research department's accurate judgment of the market, superb stock selection ability and time judgment are the keys to choosing the best fund. Every fund manager wants the fund he manages to become a dark horse, but it is not easy to really become a dark horse. Buying the wrong stock may lose the opportunity and make all previous efforts go to waste. Therefore, high-quality fund companies in the growth period will generally work hard on the construction of investment and research teams.
Third, the proportion of stock positions is relatively high. Because the risk of stocks is relatively high, funds with high stock positions have the basis to surpass other funds. Simply put, when the market is relatively stable, stock funds are generally more likely to get 10% income than bond funds. This is especially true for balanced stocks or growth funds with 60%~95% stock positions.
Fourth, the fund size and position are reasonable. Although smaller funds are easier to manage and operate, medium-sized funds have certain stability and will not lose their flexibility. In the control of fund positions, there should be advances and retreats, and positions should be increased or decreased according to the results of investment and research analysis. Don't invest too much money in the "potentially sinking" department.
The skill of finding dark horse fund is first, keep up with the big market, and discerning people need extremely professional and extremely high fund investment and research ability if they want to find high returns in the volatile market. Those funds with indecisive investment decisions, obscure styles and junk stocks still advise you to give up. We suggest paying more attention to some funds that can quickly adjust their portfolios according to market and policy orientation, so that the "dark horse" is not far from you.
Second, what do you mean by opening positions and laying the foundation in batches? Even if we are very optimistic about a fund, we should be very cautious when selling it. Building a position requires long-term consideration and buying in batches, which can not only reduce the investment risk, but also better understand the investment philosophy of the fund. Don't put all your money on one fund, choose more funds with potential, so the probability of catching a "dark horse" is naturally high. At the same time, the fund with stable investment style is the basis for us to obtain investment income, and we can't relax at any time.
Third, don't be superstitious about the so-called fund rating. From the market point of view, all fund ratings are based on the past performance of the fund, which is not decisive for the future performance of the fund. However, we can know a fund's investment and research ability, profitability in the same market environment and performance ranking in the same type of funds from a certain aspect in the fund rating, which can be used as an investment reference when we buy.
There is a very famous Zen poem in Buddhism: "The past has passed, so there is no need to think about the future." Only today's sidewalk is this sentence, plums are ripe and gardenias are fragrant. "Plums are ripe and gardenias are fragrant" is the most meaningful sentence. Plums are not ripe and cannot be forced to mature; Gardenia is not fragrant yet, and you can't force it to be fragrant. The same is true of investment. When we succeed, we should not get carried away. When we are frustrated, we don't have to be discouraged and lose hope, because everything will eventually become the past, and what we need to grasp is the present.
