Two consecutive weeks of US tech stock declines and trends in major indices
The stock market is getting noisy again, which is annoying. The S&P 500, a representative US stock index, fell for the second consecutive week, dropping 0.6% on a weekly basis and closing at 7580 points. However, looking at the year-to-date, it is firmly maintaining a 10% gain, and since a lower wick has appeared on the green 100-day moving average line, signs of a rebound can be seen. On the other hand, the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 fell for the second consecutive week, plunging 3.5% on Friday alone. Even so, while maintaining a 12% year-to-date gain, the stock price is adjusting down to the red 200-day moving average line, which is a long-term benchmark. Nasdaq tends to have a larger range of adjustment due to its high growth rate, but I view this decline as a perfect buying opportunity, so I placed a market order for 32 shares of QQQM, the Nasdaq 100 ETF, totaling about $10,000. Although QQQM has biases such as not including financial stocks and being limited to the Nasdaq market, I added to my position because I trust it as a core asset based on my many years of work experience. Furthermore, the semiconductor SOX index is also in turmoil; after a 9% sharp rebound on Wednesday, it plunged 8% in a single day on Friday due to Intel’s crash, falling below the 200-day moving average. Even so, the SOX index has recorded a staggering 57% gain year-to-date, and while it is adjusting from its June high, its overall performance for the year is very good.
🦅 In short 🦅
In short, US tech stocks as a whole have been falling for two weeks in a row, and although the Nasdaq 100 fell 3.5% in one day, it still maintains a 12% gain year-to-date. I took advantage of the stock price drop to buy an additional $10,000 worth of Nasdaq 100 ETFs, and the semiconductor index is also maintaining a strong state with a 57% year-to-date gain despite intense fluctuations.
🐶 A quick word 🐶
By the way, when observing stock index charts, it is common to use moving average lines, which show past average prices, as a benchmark. Situations like this where the price drops to long-term lines such as the 100-day or 200-day lines are considered signals of being oversold for investors and are points where a rebound is likely. Especially in markets where growth companies gather, like the Nasdaq 100, price movements become intense, but looking at past data, such major adjustment phases have historically been the perfect time to prepare for future asset formation.
💡 A word of caution 💡
By all means, do not do something reckless like investing all your assets without a plan just because the price has dropped. Even if it is a moving average line that has rebounded in the past, there is always a danger that it will break through and continue to fall depending on the overall market environment. Calculating in advance how much loss you can endure and maintaining a stance of buying in installments is the iron rule of safe operation.
❓️👺 Verifying the counterargument 👺❓️
That said, some experts believe that because it has fallen below the 200-day moving average, the stock’s upward trend is completely over. While it is true that downward pressure is strong in the short term, it is premature to conclude that this is a simple bubble burst when checking the year-to-date growth rate and the earning power of the companies’ core businesses.
👨 Putting it in intellectual terms 👨🏫
To sound intellectual, it can be said that this is part of a bottom-fishing strategy that utilizes the approach to the support line at the major moving average in technical analysis and the mean reversion characteristics of broad tech indices with high beta values.

Earnings analysis of Google and Amazon and the background of the stock price plunge
Next, I will explain in detail the earnings of Google’s parent company Alphabet and Amazon, which are giant IT companies of interest. In short, while both companies’ cloud businesses are doing great, cash is flowing out due to large capital investments. First, looking at cloud business revenue, Google Cloud grew rapidly by 103% year-on-year, more than doubling in a year, and Amazon’s AWS also achieved 6 consecutive quarters of growth with a 39% year-on-year increase, the highest growth in 5 years. In terms of total revenue, Google showed a 25% year-on-year increase and Amazon a 12% year-on-year increase, both showing solid numbers as expected. However, looking at EPS, which indicates profit per share, Google was $2.12, about 30% below the expected $2.94, a 26% decrease year-on-year. The reason for this is that an impairment loss of $8.7 billion was recorded due to a decline in the valuation of SpaceX, an investment destination, and the operating profit of the core business itself is extremely solid, up 30% year-on-year. Amazon’s EPS was also $1.89, below the expected $1.96, but operating profit is strong, up 61% year-on-year. What had the biggest impact on the stock price was the negative free cash flow; Google had a deficit for the second consecutive quarter at -$9.07 billion this term, and Amazon also saw cash outflow to -$33.5 billion because it invested $75.9 billion in capital expenditure against an operating cash flow of $42.4 billion. Both companies have order backlogs of $561 billion for Google and $578 billion for Amazon, more than double the previous year, so they have plenty of future savings, but the 2026 capital expenditure outlook is about $200 billion for Google and about $220 billion for Amazon, reaching a huge amount exceeding 30 trillion yen each, and since they plan to increase it further in 2027, there is a concern that cash outflow will continue. Following the earnings, Amazon stock temporarily fell to $229 but was bought back to $240, whereas Google stock opened with a gap and plunged 13% in one day from $324 to $283, falling 14% in two days to the year-to-date low level. Although concerns about Google lagging in AI are whispered, I bought an additional 33 shares, equivalent to about $10,000, in installments, anticipating long-term growth against the backdrop of Gemini’s 1 billion users.
🦅 In short 🦅
In short, both Google and Amazon’s cloud businesses are selling like crazy, and their core business profits are growing perfectly. However, because they used an extraordinary amount of money, over 30 trillion yen, for AI-related capital investment, their cash balances decreased significantly, causing their stock prices to plunge. Google in particular fell 13% in one day, so I bought more as a perfect bargain opportunity.
🐶 A quick word 🐶
By the way, in stock investment, free cash flow is the cash on hand that a company can use freely, and it is one of the most important indicators that becomes the source of shareholder returns and future growth investment. As in this case, even if a company is making solid profits in its core business, if it pours an amount exceeding that into the construction of AI servers and data centers, the stock price will be sold due to concerns about funding. However, considering that the order backlog, which is a reservation for future sales, has accumulated to over $500 billion, this decline is due to temporary upfront capital investment, and the long-term growth story has not collapsed.
💡 A word of caution 💡
By all means, do not mistake a company for being on the decline just because of superficial news that earnings per share fell below expectations in the earnings report. In Google’s case, the main reason for the profit decrease is a temporary accounting process involving an impairment loss of a space company, and the core operating profit has increased by 30%. If you let go in a panic without discerning the real reason behind the numbers, you will miss out on a large future rise.
❓️👺 Verifying the counterargument 👺❓️
That said, since the companies have stated that they will further expand capital investment from next year onwards, there is naturally a view that the free cash flow deficit will be prolonged and the stock price slump will continue. However, because companies that build huge infrastructure ahead of other companies can dominate the future market, the view that the decline during the upfront investment period is the greatest opportunity to buy is also strong.
👨 Putting it in intellectual terms 👨🏫
To sound intellectual, it can be said that this is a fundamental divergence phenomenon in stock prices caused by a temporary net income squeeze due to stock valuation losses, which are non-operating factors, and a contraction in free cash flow due to an increase in CapEx accompanying the construction of hyperscale AI infrastructure.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Macroeconomic trends and FOMC policy interest rate outlook
Next, I will clearly explain the macroeconomy and the movements of the central bank, which affect the money of the entire United States. The current stock market is in a cycle called an earnings-driven market, where stock prices move based on corporate performance. At the FOMC meeting of interest, the policy interest rate was kept in the range of 3.75% to 4.00%, but two participants insisted on a rate hike and cast dissenting votes. The US inflation rate remains high at 3%, and the rise in energy prices, such as gasoline prices hitting record highs across the US, is pushing up prices. Although Chairman Powell also emphasized that curbing inflation is the top priority, the GDP growth rate is 3.4%, and the economy itself is very strong. Regarding employment, although there is a move by Microsoft to recruit early retirees on a scale of 60,000, equivalent to 25% of all employees, the overall unemployment rate maintains a level close to the 4% full employment level at 4.2%. Given this situation, the bond market expects an additional rate hike to be carried out at the December FOMC with an 83% (or 70%) probability. Looking back at history, in 2022, when the inflation rate soared to 9.1%, a rapid rate hike of 0.75%, three times the normal pace, was carried out four times in a row, causing a market shock where the S&P 500 plunged 25% and the Nasdaq crashed 40%. After that, inflation calmed down, and a 0.5% rate cut was carried out in September 2024, and rate cuts continued in November and December, but there is a background where a rate hike to 3.75% to 4.00% was carried out again in September 2026. In the Fed’s dot plot outlook, a median of 4.1% for the year and 4.1% for next year suggests one more rate hike, but according to the views of 13 people in the central tendency, there is also a possibility that the interest rate cap for 2026 and next year will rise to 4.4%. The market expects a probability of about 40% that interest rates will be raised to 4.5% after April 2027, and if war and high crude oil prices are prolonged, it is necessary to keep in mind the concern of shifting to a reverse financial market due to rising interest rates. Even so, looking at the S&P 500 as a whole, it achieved a 30% profit growth year-on-year, and 82% of companies exceeded prior expectations, so corporate performance itself remains very strong.
🦅 In short 🦅
In short, the US economy is in great shape with a 3.4% increase in GDP, but because inflation such as gasoline costs is not subsiding, the possibility that the central bank will raise interest rates again in December is increasing significantly. When interest rates rise, it becomes a headwind for stock prices, but since the overall profit of companies is growing steadily by 30% year-on-year, they are holding their ground.
🐶 A quick word 🐶
By the way, the officials at the Fed, which is the central bank, decide interest rates while carrying the two missions of price stability and maximum employment. As Chairman Powell has also stated, since the current employment environment is extremely good with an unemployment rate of 4.2%, the Fed’s interest is concentrated on the single point of how to curb inflation from 3%. If high crude oil prices accelerate due to geopolitical risks, etc., there is a risk of facing a decline phase called a reverse financial market where rate hikes are prolonged and money does not circulate to the entire stock market, so I cannot take my eyes off the interest rate trends.
💡 A word of caution 💡
By all means, avoid extreme actions such as selling off all your holdings in fear just because you heard on the news that interest rates are rising. Even if interest rates are high, there are many cases where stock prices continue to rise stubbornly as an earnings-driven market while companies are churning out profits that exceed that. It is important to observe the strength of the economy and the earning power of companies as a set.
❓️👺 Verifying the counterargument 👺❓️
That said, the counterargument that if interest rates rise to 4.5%, money will flow out to high-yield government bonds and high-risk stocks will not be bought much is extremely reasonable. However, if companies can maintain an annual profit growth rate of 30%, it is fully conceivable that they will blow away the friction of high interest rates and stock prices will continue to chase higher levels.
👨 To put it in intellectual terms 👨🏫
To put it in intellectual terms, against the backdrop of solid macro GDP growth and a steady labor market, the stickiness of inflation has led to a situation where the risk of shifting to a reverse financial market phase due to a hawkish terminal rate reset is becoming apparent.

AbbVie’s Strong Earnings and Investment Strategy for Dividend Aristocrats
Next, I’ll bring you some wonderful news about AbbVie, a healthcare giant whose stock is understated but surprisingly reliable. While the healthcare sector as a whole has been struggling, AbbVie’s strong earnings have acted as a driver, successfully turning it into positive year-on-year growth. Looking at AbbVie’s stock chart, it is moving above the purple 50-day moving average line, depicting an extremely stable upward trend near its all-time highs. Its dividend yield is about 2.3%, which is on par with the high-dividend stock ETF VYM, and it is a Dividend King that has consistently increased its dividends for over 50 years. When I bought 45 shares for about $10,000 at the beginning of the year when the stock price was sluggish, the stock price itself rose by 33%, resulting in a fantastic gain of $3,300, which is over 400,000 Japanese yen in unrealized profit. In this quarter’s earnings, revenue increased by 10.3% year-on-year, adjusted earnings per share were $3.82, exceeding expectations, and the full-year profit forecast was revised upward from $13.95 to $13.99. The combined sales of its flagship immune drugs for rheumatism and Crohn’s disease, Skyrizi and Rinvoq, grew rapidly by 23% year-on-year, and it has received FDA approval for Skyrizi’s injectable administration and a new drug for Parkinson’s disease. Although sales of Humira, once a super-mega-hit drug, fell by 31% due to the expiration of its patent and the emergence of generic drugs, the 23% growth of the two new drugs successfully compensated for this, achieving a 10% increase in total revenue. A 5.2% increase in the quarterly dividend was also announced, which is scheduled to be reflected in the payment next February. When using index investments like Tsumitate NISA or the S&P 500 for retirement or education funds, there is a disadvantage that even if the market crashes, you cannot cash them out without selling your assets. However, if you hold dividend-growth stocks like AbbVie, dividends are deposited directly into your account in dollars without you having to sell a single share, and by holding them for many years, the yield on your purchase price jumps to 10% or 15%, which is a huge advantage for very secure long-term management.
🦅 In short 🦅
In short, pharmaceutical giant AbbVie successfully covered the patent expiration of its flagship drug with a 23% revenue increase from new drugs, and announced an upward revision of its full-year performance and a 5.2% dividend increase. Dividend-growth stocks, where dividends automatically increase every year without having to sell the stock, are powerful assets for securely ensuring retirement funds and future living expenses.
🐶 A quick word 🐶
By the way, the biggest concern when investing in pharmaceutical companies is the sharp drop in sales due to patent expiration, known as the patent cliff. Since AbbVie’s Humira was the world’s best-selling drug, revenue fell by 31% due to the patent expiration, but the company had already been developing successor new drugs like Skyrizi and Rinvoq. The high management capability to maintain double-digit growth through this successful generational shift of flagship drugs is the true essence of a Dividend King that has been able to continue increasing dividends for over 50 years.
💡 A word of emphasis 💡
Make sure you don’t fall into the trap of thinking that index investing is the only absolute correct answer and ignore your exit strategy. If a market crash hits during your withdrawal phase, you will suffer significant mental damage as you are forced to sell your diminished assets with tears in your eyes. Having the perspective of incorporating dividend-growth stocks into part of your portfolio to secure passive cash income will enrich your life.
❓️👺 Examining the counterargument 👺❓️
That said, there is also criticism that companies that pay dividends do not put money into growth investments, so the speed of asset growth is slower compared to high-tech stocks. However, the peace of mind of being able to stably receive dividends that increase year by year, in addition to the 33% unrealized gain from the stock price increase, has value that is no less than an index, even in terms of preventing panic selling during a crash.
👨 To put it in intellectual terms 👨🏫
To put it in intellectual terms, it can be called a quality dividend investment strategy that completely offsets the cliff risk associated with patent expiration with double-digit growth in the next-generation immune pipeline, and avoids withdrawal risk through the maximization of yield on cost.

Factors behind the decline in gold as a commodity and the decision to increase holdings
Next, I will explain the rapid price fluctuation of gold, a commodity considered a safe asset. The price of gold fell by 3% over the week, briefly falling below $3,900, and the closing price at the end of the week was $3,875. Looking at the fact that it recorded an all-time high of over $5,500 at the end of January this year, this is a very large sharp drop of about 30%, and it fell 3.4% on Friday alone. The reason for this decline is not that there was bad news for gold itself, but because investors sold gold, which was showing a profit, to secure cash due to the sharp drop in high-tech stocks. Furthermore, US long-term interest rates are remaining high at the 4.9% level, close to 5%, and the high interest rates are acting as a headwind for gold, which does not generate interest. However, I have been continuing my accumulation investment with an eye on long-term value, and in response to this low price, I made a spot purchase of 120 shares of the gold ETF GLDM, worth about $10,000. When the gold price exceeded $2,000 in 2024, I could only buy about 80 shares for the same $10,000, but thanks to this price drop, I was able to acquire 120 shares. The trick to increasing long-term returns for assets like gold is not to buy them all at once during a crash, but to increase your holdings in installments based on rules.
🦅 In short 🦅
In short, gold fell sharply by nearly 30% from its all-time high of $5,500 to $3,875, but this is a temporary phenomenon due to cashing out accompanying the stock market decline and high interest rates. Thanks to the price drop, the number of ETFs I could buy for the same $10,000 increased, so I saw it as a prime buying opportunity and increased my holdings by 120 shares.
🐶 A quick word 🐶
By the way, because gold is an asset that does not generate interest or dividends, it has the characteristic that its attractiveness relative to interest-bearing assets like bonds tends to decrease in a high-interest-rate environment. However, in a situation where the stock market is in turmoil, a dynamic works where institutional investors sell the gold they have on hand that is showing a profit first to pay for additional margin calls or to secure cash. This temporary sharp drop due to the structural convenience of the market is the perfect chance to acquire gold, whose long-term value does not change, at a bargain.
💡 A word of emphasis 💡
Make sure you don’t forget the fact that even gold, which is called a safe asset, can experience a 30% crash in a short period of time. Do not engage in extreme investing, such as overconfidently believing that it is absolutely safe because it is gold and putting more than half of your assets into it. It is important to maintain a certain percentage as a defensive accent in your portfolio while picking it up little by little when the price drops.
❓️👺 Examining the counterargument 👺❓️
That said, as long as interest rates remain high at nearly 5%, there is naturally the point that holding gold, which pays neither dividends nor interest, is inefficient in terms of capital. However, gold, which functions as insurance against future declines in currency value and geopolitical risks, exerts a long-term diversification effect by increasing the number of shares held during periods of price decline.
👨 To put it in intellectual terms 👨🏫
To put it in intellectual terms, it can be called a temporary discount phenomenon in commodity prices brought about by indiscriminate cash-out selling for the purpose of maintaining margin and ensuring liquidity in high-tech stocks, and an increase in opportunity cost due to high real interest rates.

How to resolve the trouble of not being able to buy in a falling market and the thoroughness of stop-loss rules
From here on, I will teach you practical mental management and rule-making to win at investing, in a way that answers the earnest worries of viewers. This is an answer to real worries such as, “I’m waiting for the stock price to fall, but when it actually falls, I’m too scared to buy,” and “I have unrealized losses on holdings like Micron and I can’t move.” The only solution to being able to buy without hesitation when the price falls is to completely decide on the rules of what to buy before the market falls. For core assets like the Nasdaq 100, Google, and gold, you should observe the moving average lines on a regular basis and set guidelines in advance, such as buying a little when it breaks the 100-day line, and buying more happily when it breaks the 200-day line. If you don’t decide in advance, you will fall into a vicious cycle where the stock price returns while you are worrying about “whether it will fall further,” or it falls further and your fear increases. Also, as a way to deal with stocks with unrealized losses, it is essential to use different stop-loss rules for each type of asset. For core assets that you hold for the long term, you should not set a stop-loss and should happily buy even if they fall 50% or 60%, but for satellite assets that aim for short-term price increases, you must set a stop-loss line with a stop-loss order before purchasing. For the short term, set a mechanical stop-loss at 7% to 8%, for swing trading set it a bit deeper, and for long-term satellite assets, set a trailing stop to exit at a 40% to 50% decline. There is no such thing as satellite investing without a stop-loss, and a mindset shift that evaluates the execution of a disciplined stop-loss as a successful trade in itself is the key to victory.
🦅 In short 🦅
In short, the reason you can’t buy when stocks are cheap is because you haven’t decided on the rules in advance; you should increase your holdings of core assets without hesitation based on moving average lines, and for short-term satellite assets, you should always set a stop-loss with a stop-loss order before buying. Thoroughly executing stop-losses to protect capital efficiency is the iron rule for surviving in investing.
🐶 A quick word 🐶
By the way, the human brain has a psychological characteristic called prospect theory, where we feel the fear of losing nearly twice as strongly as the joy of gaining. That is why it is a natural reaction to be dominated by fear and unable to move if you try to think and judge with your own head in the midst of a stock market crash. That is why professional investors enter automatic order rules, such as moving average lines and stop-loss prices, into the system when it is peaceful and their emotions are not shaken, and complete transactions mechanically by excluding emotions.
💡 A word of emphasis 💡
Make sure you don’t hold onto unrealized losses indefinitely with the faint hope that “if I wait, the stock price will return someday.” Leaving unrealized losses on stocks bought for the short term means tying up valuable capital for a long period of time, which brings enormous damage in the form of opportunity cost. Understand that a stop-loss on a satellite stock is not a failure, but a wise process to move capital to the next opportunity.
❓️👺 Examining the counterargument 👺❓️
That said, there are often cases where the stock price hits bottom and rebounds the moment you set a stop-loss, and you feel frustrated because only the loss is confirmed. However, if you continue to break your stop-loss rules in the hope of a rare rebound, you will lose most of your assets in one fatal crash, so a mechanical stop-loss is absolutely essential to win in total.
👨 To put it in intellectual terms 👨🏫
To put it in intellectual terms, it can be said that in order to eliminate the loss aversion bias in behavioral economics, it is the optimization of the risk-reward ratio through the application of predefined algorithms based on a core-satellite strategy and the strict execution of mechanical stop-losses.

🦞 Rough Summary 🦞
First, to give you the point in a nutshell, the US stock market is currently facing a sharp correction triggered by the earnings of the two giants, Google and Amazon, but the companies’ core earning power has not collapsed; rather, it is a perfect opportunity for long-term investors to increase their holdings. The S&P 500 index fell 0.6% over two consecutive weeks to 7,580 points, and the Nasdaq 100 index also plunged 3.5% on Friday, but they are firmly maintaining year-to-date gains of 10% and 12%, respectively. Google and Amazon recorded astonishing rapid growth in their cloud businesses, up 103% and 39% year-on-year, respectively, and their core operating profits grew by 30% and 61%, but because each company invested a massive amount of over 30 trillion yen in AI infrastructure, their free cash flow turned negative, and the market, wary of the capital outflow, sold off their stocks significantly. Google’s stock price plunged 13% in one day to near its year-to-date low, but this also involved a one-time factor of a valuation loss from SpaceX, and since the core business is solid, I executed a buy-up by purchasing 33 shares, equivalent to $10,000, in split portions. For QQQM, the Nasdaq 100 ETF, I also purchased 32 shares, equivalent to $10,000, at the timing when it fell to the milestone of the 200-day moving average. Looking at the macroeconomy, the FOMC kept the policy interest rate at 4.00% from 3.75%, but against the backdrop of 3% inflation remaining high due to rising gasoline prices, it is expected that another rate hike will be carried out at the December FOMC with an 83% probability. Looking back at historical data on rapid interest rate hikes, a high-interest-rate environment is a drag on stock prices, but the strong performance of S&P 500 companies, with 30% profit growth, is supporting the market. Even in such a turbulent market, AbbVie, which boasts 50 consecutive years of dividend increases, announced a 10.3% increase in sales and an upward revision of its earnings, covering the patent expiration of its main drug with a 23% revenue increase from new drugs, and decided on a 5.2% dividend increase while maintaining its stock price near record highs. Consecutive dividend-increasing stocks that allow you to receive cash dividends without selling shares are a powerful weapon to eliminate the risk of depleting retirement funds. Also, the commodity gold plunged nearly 30% from its record high of $5,500 to $3,875, but this is a temporary phenomenon due to securing cash accompanying the stock decline and high interest rates, so I bought an additional 120 shares of GLDM at the low price. To overcome the worry of not being able to buy in a falling market, it is essential to set buying rules in advance based on target stocks and moving averages, and for short-term satellite investments, always set stop-losses with stop-limit orders and strictly follow the discipline, which determines the success or failure of the investment.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
📺️ To react like the masses 📺️
What, what? It’s no wonder that people are panicking, asking what on earth is going on when Google and Amazon, which are generating huge profits, see their stock prices plunge 13% immediately after announcing earnings, and even the safe asset gold falls 30%. If you are shown numbers like “huge cash outflow” or “83% probability of a December rate hike” in the news, it is a normal feeling to want to sell all your stocks and run away. However, it is necessary to step out of the mass reaction of panicking and buying/selling while being swayed by such superficial shock news, and to build an extremely strategic and cautious investment strategy. First of all, realize that the decline in Amazon and Google this time is not because the companies are in decline, but because of proactive capital investment of over 30 trillion yen to monopolize the future AI market. Therefore, the wisest stance is not to invest all your funds at once just because the stock price has plummeted, but to carefully divide the purchase into several times using a predetermined budget, such as in $10,000 units, based on the moving average. Second, to prepare for the risk of high interest rates and inflation dragging on and shifting to a reverse financial market, do not concentrate all your assets only on high-tech stocks, but thoroughly implement a diversification strategy that incorporates defensive high-dividend stocks that have continued to increase dividends for over 50 years, like AbbVie, and gold into your portfolio. Third, do not buy satellite stocks without a plan just because the price has fallen, but enter a stop-loss order of 7% to 8% at the same time as the purchase in advance, and perform mechanical risk management to prevent the destruction of assets in the event of a further crash. Not being swayed by the emotional noise of the market, and sticking to cautious split buying and solid risk management based on pre-set rules is the essential investment strategy to win in a turbulent market.
