March felt like a regime shift — when the $NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ , $S&P 500(.SPX)$ , and even Gold all sold off together, it showed liquidity was driving markets more than fundamentals. Oil and inflation fears quickly flipped expectations back to “higher for longer.” My Q1 performance was decent, but mainly driven by risk control. It was a reminder that diversification doesn’t always protect you in these environments.

During the selloff, I stayed disciplined — trimmed some crowded AI exposure and held more cash, but didn’t panic. To me, this felt more like a positioning unwind than a true fundamental breakdown. Preserving capital mattered more than chasing short-term rebounds.

For April, I don’t think the bottom is fully in yet, but we’re getting closer. I’d start scaling into quality names gradually rather than trying to time the exact bottom. Patience here is likely to be rewarded more than aggressive positioning.

    Solid plan, mate. Scaling in beats timing the bottom every time. [得意]
