How to Deal with the Continuous Fall of Funds#
In fact, there is no need to be too anxious or worried.
【First】you need to understand:
- The stock market cannot always rise, fluctuations are natural;
- If you sell, the loss is inevitable;
- If you want to switch to other funds, can you guarantee that they are not worse?
- How much effort will you need to spend if you switch every time it falls? Is it worth it?
- Have you considered the significant costs generated by frequent trading?
【Then】don't rush to redeem it, here are the reasons:
- Taking the example of the 77-year history of stock trading in the United States from 1925 to 2002, the possibility of losing money is 3% if you invest continuously for any 10 years, while the possibility of losing money is 30% if you only invest for 1 year;
- Excellent fund managers and fund companies should be more anxious than you;
- Unless there are major changes in the fund company or manager, evaluate and switch at least every six months;
- Believe that the world is always getting better [this is an old optimistic thought].
【Of course】you must pay attention to the work of selecting funds in the early stage: [In my opinion, the preparation work for selecting funds in the early stage is more critical than the maintenance work in the later stage]
- Refer to Morningstar to allocate a fund portfolio that suits you;
- Invest in familiar areas rather than following speculation;
- You are using spare money, even if you lose it all, it won't affect your life.
If you are not satisfied, you can continue reading - the source of the above thoughts, and the mind map of the entire book are also attached.

Starting from the book "The First Five Years of Work," it sparked an interest in financial management; then, Charlie Munger's "Poor Charlie's Almanack" resonated with his diversified thinking; then "The Richest Man in Babylon" and "Rich Dad Poor Dad" made me realize the necessity of economic thinking from a macro perspective; and finally, this book shares practical experiences in funds.
