The performance of the global stock market in 2022 can be said to be sluggish. Many young stock market players are out, and there are still authors/lecturers who rely on membership fee income. However, looking at the overall process, it seems that the decline is not severe.
(Crying like this time means you are still too tender.)
There are many reasons for the market decline: war, inflation, business competition, politics, resource allocation, sovereignty disputes, etc, which resulted in index fluctuations.
Perhaps it can be interpreted as a short-term correction, or the origin of a recession. But there is one thing for sure: do not underestimate human stupidity.
Thus, there is a trend of investment conversion in the financial industry; otherwise it will loose the money inflow.
The theme is "bonds" and "distribution funds", targeting investors who seek stability in troubled peroid, especially middle-aged and elderly people.
As a high-estate person, I have long been regarded as a target, or "honored customer".
Verify my own bond fund returns from positive to negative, and they recommend switching to bonds or stable dividend funds.
To be honest, I don't want to switch the investment, but would like to maintain the payment according to the plan, the reasons are as follows:
1. Smile curve, rare opportunity.
2. Switching costs, bank targets.
3. Don't go to crowded places.
Although I refused (the financial manager is the same as the insurance salesman, their skills are not only reasoning and analysis, but also emotional blackmail), but based on the spirit of scientific research, I will track it in a list, so as to correct my future investment strategy.
