Doesn’t it equate to believing that stocks that have recently done poorly do better in the near future, on average, than stocks that have recently done well? I don’t know that I’d expect that to be the case.

Seems like believing in buying the dips is falling victim to some kind of cognitive bias.

Depends on the dip. When there is a big mkt decline, you can definitely upgrade in stock quality. If it is the company or sector only, it is more dangerous.

it depends on the time horizon. there's a short-term mean reversion effect, where the worst monthly or weekly performers get a short-term pop, but the stocks that have done the best over a longer period (3 to 16 months) tend to continue to outperform.

look at MTUM versus VLUE. MTUM has killed it.

IDK why anyone does anything other than 0 fee S&P ETF or something like VTI.

Most people can’t time the market. Probably a better idea to just dollar cost average.

The problem is, you don't know when the dips were until later.
