[Topic] What would you do in a market crash?

Stock markets have been experiencing declines for days since late August... $S&P 500(.SPX)$ fell 2.11% on 30 Sept, making a newer low again. 

There's a possibility of a rebound in short term, but the market is also likely to continue crashing and hit us hard... 

So when facing a stock market crash, what will you do? 

Stay in the stock market, waiting for an opportunity to turn around, or leave for a while? Will you hedge your portfolio? 

And what are the reasons?   Click here to share with us in the TOPIC PAGE and win coins >>

    3 steps:
    1) ensure there is stable income for yourself, that will help lay the base for a resilient mind when the crash hits
    2) work out your budget, know how much you can afford to put in the market and ride out the crash
    3) identify the stocks that is undervalued, buy when it's down by 20% and sell when it's up by 20 to 25%, repeat this a few times and you will grow your portfolio steadily

    Be patient and follow a strategy.  Stick to the stocks that you know & with potential to grow in the future. Better buy blue chip stocks like TSLA, APPL, GOOGL, BABA, TSM, NVIDIA, AMD, etc. and DCA down in small amounts. Never fomo and keep calm.

    fed target rate 2023 going to be as high as 4.6%. us2y follows the fed rate closely. looking at the chart, upside is limited. monetary authorities of other countries will rebalance and cause the usd to weaken. fed is reducing its balance sheet, this is pushing up yields too. conclusion, yields will stay high and make new highs because of the shrinking balance sheet. sell some usd denominated stocks and sell some usd as a hedge. you can buy more of your home currency denominated stocks for a technical rebound. cheers or cheer up.

    Follow the trend. This downtrend don't seem to be going anywhere yet. It's best to stay out if buying until a reversal in trend. ATM, don't risk, low can continue to go lower. Save the capital for the big day

      No worries actually, haha. You can still do it casually there. A Topic is just a place for you to talk about a certain thing, and you don't necessarily need to write serious content. Also, you may check what others are talking about all together in the TOPIC page :)

      No la. I'm just do it casually. Too many things to handle. Have time I prefer to relax. Can't just simply post a topic without deep analysis.

    Currently sit on the side line, read the news, read about trend in the world and read about companies or industries you are interested. Watch every event like World cup, election etc

    With the downtrend, staying on the sodeline & avoid further crash, gather some dry powder for opportunities to strike
