Starting Monday, I will make up for the Thursday dollar-cost averaging plan. This week, I will only work three days, and I have scheduled dollar-cost averaging for all three days. The specific plan is detailed below.
Recently, I reviewed the data on the fund's follow-up investments and discovered an interesting phenomenon.
You can guess when this year the follow-up investment volume was the highest and when it was the lowest. Many people might think: the follow-up volume should be the largest now because we recently restarted dollar-cost averaging into Chinese stocks. As for October, when the stock market was surging, we kept saying that fund valuations were too high, and the portfolio was adjusted to short-term bonds, so the follow-up investment at that time should have been low.
But the actual situation is completely opposite.
From late September to early October, when the stock market was rising the most vigorously, it turned out to be the time with the highest follow-up investment volume this year. Even though we kept emphasizing that stock funds are not cost-effective enough and the portfolio was adjusted to short-term bonds, it couldn't dampen the enthusiasm of new users. This is quite interesting.
When was the follow-up volume the lowest? It was at the beginning of the year.
That is, before this round of market rally started. Especially during that period when international situations were uncertain and policy uncertainties arose, the amount of dollar-cost averaging was at its lowest point for the year.
Yesterday, a reader commented that this portfolio is the only one he has made money with. From the contrast in the follow-up investment data, it precisely illustrates a point — truly profitable investment strategies often go against most people's intuition. The times that seem the most dangerous often hide the greatest opportunities.

Haha, it's the same old story of human hypocrisy, I believe it now. The so-called low point at the beginning of the year, I was completely out of the market for five months before this rebound, and only now do I understand what a real arbitrage opportunity is. Most people are just slaves to greed and fear; those who make money are the crazy ones operating in the opposite direction.

This data discrepancy is indeed bizarre, a typical herd mentality versus rational expectations game imbalance. The lowest amount of follow-up investments coincides with the lowest risk, isn't this the opposite example of market pricing efficiency?

Buy more as prices fall; this is the true essence of dollar-cost averaging. Those who were timid at the beginning of the year are probably regretting it now.

Alright, this data contrast is indeed incredible. Human nature is just so counterintuitive.

Haha, this data reversal is indeed amazing. The more dangerous and aggressive approach really works!
