The index is made up of stocks, so when stocks fall, the index will also fall. But! The index will not die.
If the index dies, to put it bluntly, a basket of stocks is all dead. Listed companies may go bankrupt, and stocks may never come up again. Because of this, you don't know if it will come back, and your heart will be very insecure. The more insecure you are, the more you can't hold it. Even the best stocks may choose to cut meat.
The index will not die, and the bottom is guaranteed. And you know that the bull market is coming, and the index will definitely go up. You know a bull market is likely to come. There is a simple reason. A sustained growth economy can expect the economy and its corresponding stock indexes to be upward, but the slopes are different. As far as our country is concerned, sustained growth is a foregone conclusion, so you don't have to doubt it. So you won't do anything stupid, and you won't choose to cut the meat at the bottom.
It's very simple to make an index investment, and ensure that your cost is controlled in a very low area. You don't have to ask for the lowest, just very low. Then wait patiently. When the wind comes, it will definitely come. Value will be discovered and valuation will return. Actually, it's that simple.
The so-called underestimation of opening positions, ideally, is to complete opening positions in the bottom area of valuation. You must not expect to buy the lowest point. The bottom is an area. You can open positions in batches and invest slowly, so you won't feel bad if you drop an earring. If you don't buy it, it will be uncomfortable once it rebounds. (If you are a technical god, in addition to accurate bargain hunting), you can basically complete the opening of positions within 10% of the historical height of varieties.
Take CSI 500, Media ETF, CSI Bonus and Medical Health 202 1 as examples. At present, these three varieties still belong to the range of good quality and low price. If the market comes, the annualized rate of return may be more than that. Of course, in the short term, there may be a roller coaster. However, the cost is low and the mentality is not bad. If you can't stand loneliness, you can do high throwing and low sucking with less positions. I remember that being a band is a small position, because according to my experience, many times when I throw it away, I can't get it back, and I stamp my feet with anger. After copying it, it fell down, so you can't buy it any more. I gnashed my teeth with anger.
Let's build a semi-warehouse first. If it goes up, it will hold it happily. If it falls, it will continue to buy some. If you get what you want at a lower price, you will be happy.
Take your time, obscene development, money does not enter the emergency door. As the saying goes, be a friend of time, not a friend of time!
