Operation skills:
Look at the market outlook before you operate.
The income from fund investment comes from the future. For example, if you want to redeem stock funds, you can first look at whether the future development of the stock market is a bull market or a bear market. Then decide whether to redeem or not, and make a choice on the timing. If it is a bull market, it can be held for a period of time to maximize the benefits. If it is a bear market, redeem it in advance and put it in the bag.
Second, switch to other products.
Converting high-risk fund products into low-risk fund products is also a kind of redemption.
Third, regular fixed redemption.
Like regular investment, regular fixed redemption can do daily cash management and stabilize market fluctuations. Fixed-term redemption is a redemption method of fixed-term investment.
