[TOPIC] Buy High vs. Sell Low - Which Hurts More?

On Monday, Ark founder Cathie Wood said that deflation is brewing.

On Tuesday, Wood "bought the dip", which suggested she was preparing for it or confident on the stock market. Cathie Wood spent $41.9 million to add 27 companies, the highest single-day purchase since February. $Roku Inc(ROKU)$$Zoom(ZM)$

Athanasios Psarofagis, a Bloomberg ETF researcher, said

Her investments in the US stock market fell a lot after January this year, but have started to rise in recent days. Cathie Wood’smove on Tuesday suggests shewasvery confident.

Regarding "buy low and sell high", it is important to mention Warren Buffett's famous quote

be “fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful.”

Different from the investing guru, retail investors often make mistakes. Instead of “buy the dip and sell the rip”, it always turned to be "buy high and sell low."

Do you think Wood buy the dip or buy the rip on Tuesday?

Have you ever suffered from these heart-breaking experiences?

Which one hurts more for you?

    Sums up for my AMD NVDA & SPY since Dec 2021...

    Turns up SG stock that people belittled and naysayer of dividend built was my best performing one..

    Should have stick to what suits one needs and ability to handle volatility. Especially 12hr apart situations

    那么痛的领悟~

    🌟🌟🌟感谢 @Tiger_chat 办活动👍🏻今年很糟糕, 做了很多错误决定, 输了很多💰最后悔没有在俄乌开战时清空股票。最可悲应该是心存贪念在高峰买入,直线下滑惊慌失措低价卖出股票,这是最伤人的。不过错了就是错了,经一事长一智,在股票里最重要就是钱!没关系, 再等待机会再次出击😃接下来股市应该还会往下滑,我会继续等待时机买入有价值的优质好股作为长期投资!不再跟风买入低价股乱投机!

    Cash is King. With lots of cash on hand, the worries are all gone.
    1) You can't time the markets to the dot but you can count on the trends as friends.
    2) Sometimes, the friends betrayed you. You ended up as Buy High. Then, we have to console ourselves on misreading the trends or friends.
    3) If money is not the issue, we can patiently wait for the next wave. What goes down will come up.
    4)  It's fun to be in the markets. Isn't it ❓Life is more meaningful what we have the challenges to learn new things every minute, every hour or every day
    5) Stay positive 👌 😅

    My investment strategy differs from Cathie Wood. In fact, I emulate Warren Buffett as his investment strategy may seems boring but it works!

    Well as each individual's investment journey differs, I feel that Cathie's strategy of selling off potential good companies when prices dip and buying more of companies which have no economic moat, unsound fundamentals perhaps is good for her!

    Besides its proven that Warren Buffett's investments reaps much more huge gains than hers over a period of time.

    Easy to say, difficult to execute. Especially when there is fear in the market.

    Buy high sell low means FOMO. Entry price is important. Patience is more important in a volatile market. Buying based on fundamental at a price with safety margin and long term horizon is best.
