ETF is a kind of index fund, which tracks a specific index. Investors buying and selling an ETF is equivalent to buying and selling the index it tracks. This small series sorts out why we should set up the principle of fund trading for your reference.
Why should we set up the principle of fund trading?
The principle of establishing fund transactions is to ensure fair, transparent and effective transactions, protect the rights and interests of investors and promote the healthy development of the market. The following are some of the main reasons for establishing the principle of fund trading:
Fairness and justice: the principle of fund trading is to ensure that all investors can participate in the trading process fairly and enjoy the same rights and interests in obtaining the transaction execution price and the number of transactions.
Transparency: The principle of fund trading requires complete, accurate and timely disclosure of relevant information of fund products, including the net value, expenses, investment portfolio and performance of the fund, so that investors can fully understand the fund and its operation.
Risk control: fund trading principles set trading rules and restrictions to control risks in fund trading, including trading volume, time limit and price range.
Investor protection: the principle of fund trading is to ensure that the interests of investors are fully protected, including requiring fund companies and fund managers to fulfill their statutory disclosure obligations and protect the personal information and capital safety of investors.
What are the misunderstandings in the process of fund trading?
Chasing short-term returns: Some investors may pay too much attention to short-term returns, and intraday trading may chase short-term hot spots, which may increase investment risks and reduce long-term investment returns.
Choose a fund based on past performance: past performance does not guarantee future performance. Investors can't just choose a fund based on past performance, but should comprehensively consider the investment strategy, risk level, cost and other factors of the fund.
Ignore the cost: the cost has an important impact on the final income of the fund. Investors should carefully study and compare the cost structure of funds and choose funds with reasonable costs.
Lack of diversification: too much investment in a certain industry, region or asset class may increase risks, and investors should diversify risks.
Lack of professional advice: Some investors may lack investment knowledge and experience and rely too much on their own decisions, leading to irrational investment decisions. Seeking advice from professional financial advisers or fund managers can help investors make more informed investment decisions.

Is the fund valuation falling sharply suitable for buying?
It depends on whether the fund valuation is suitable for buying. When the fund's valuation plummets, the first thing to do is to analyze the reasons for the fund's plunge, whether the fund itself or the market is not good, and most funds are falling.
If it is due to the reasons of the fund itself, such as the fund manager's misoperation, or the fund itself is not good, the fund always falls more and rises less, then it is not recommended to buy it. It may be a bottomless pit, and the more you lose, the more you lose.
If most funds fall because of the influence of market factors, then you can wait and find the right opportunity to buy, because when most funds fall, they are generally funds that have a big relationship with the stock market. When the stock market is bad, funds will also fall. When the fund valuation is low, the fund has investment value, the fund has more room for growth, and the investment fund has greater probability of gaining income.
What does the sharp decline in fund valuation mean?
The sharp decline in the valuation of the fund means that the price of the fund is falling sharply. The lower the general fund valuation, the smaller the risk will be, indicating that the fund has certain investment value, greater room for growth and the possibility of making money. You can choose to buy when the valuation of the fund falls sharply. If you buy at a low level and sell at a high level, then the fund may make money. If you buy at a high level, you will lose.
But when buying a fund, there are many factors that affect the rise and fall of the fund. Everyone should look at the prospects of fund investment targets, and then analyze them in combination with market conditions and other reasons. Most of the funds whose general fund valuations have plummeted have invested in the stock market, which is risky. It depends on whether the stocks held by the fund have stabilized. When the stock market or stocks held by the fund have stabilized, it is the best time to start.
There are few cases where the valuation of a fund like the Monetary Fund has fallen sharply. Because the investment direction is the money market, the risk is relatively small and the income is relatively stable. There are few cases in which the valuation of the fund has fallen sharply, and the general fund has relatively small fluctuations.
