The A-share market in 2024 ushered in a jaw-dropping day. Just half an hour after the opening, the broader market retraced from a high of 3,674 points to 3,374 points, and the gain plummeted from 10.13% to 1.14%. This kind of violent fluctuations has made countless new investors experience a "roller coaster" market, calling "the heart can't stand it".
Crazy opening: The up-and-down tide swept the market
Recently, in early trading, the A-share market opened with a fiery trend. The Shanghai Composite Index opened 10.13% higher, and the ChiNext Index soared 18.44%. Among the 5,339 stocks in the market, 5,334 stocks rose, of which nearly 4,000 stocks directly rose to the limit.
Seeing such a market, many new investors were so excited that they danced. Xiao Wang is a novice who has just entered the market, and he excitedly said to his friends: "It's so cool! I just opened an account yesterday and bought a few stocks, and today they are all up and down. It's too easy to get the money, isn't it? "
The experienced veteran investor frowned. Lao Zhang sighed and said, "The market is so crazy, I'm afraid something will happen." Sure enough, only half an hour after the opening of the market, the market began to fall sharply.
Thrilling half hour: from heaven to hell
In just 30 minutes, the market plummeted from a high of 3,674 points to 3,374 points, and the gain plummeted from 10.13% to 1.14%. This kind of sharp volatility caught countless new investors off guard.
Xiao Li, a novice who has just entered the market for a week, said with annoyance: "I saw the opening price rise sharply, thinking that I could make a lot of money, but after chasing high and buying, it began to fall." Now I have lost thousands, and I really want to cry without tears. "
At the same time, the Hong Kong stock market has also seen sharp fluctuations. The Hang Seng Index has fallen by more than 1,000 points from its high, causing many investors in the two markets to complain.
The Great Retreat of Major Funds: Market sentiment has taken a sharp turn
In this round of violent fluctuations, the movement of the main funds is eye-catching. According to statistics, the net outflow of main funds on the day was as high as 219.5 billion yuan, a new high in recent times.
Some market analysts pointed out: "The large-scale withdrawal of major funds shows that institutions are not optimistic about the market outlook." This could add to the panic in the market. "
Indeed, with the withdrawal of the main funds, the market sentiment has taken a sharp turn. Many investors are beginning to worry about whether there will be a continuous plunge. Xiao Zhang, an investor who has held shares for many years, said worriedly: "In this case, I don't even know whether to cut the meat." "
Record trading volume: New investors are enthusiastic or old investors are leaving?
It is worth noting that the trading volume of the A-share market hit a new high on the day, reaching a staggering 3.45 trillion yuan. This data has sparked heated discussions in the market.
Some believe that this is because a large number of new investors have flooded the market, driving up trading volumes. Xiao Li said: "Many friends around me have opened accounts to buy stocks in the past two days, and everyone thinks they can make a lot of money." "
But there are also those who have a different view. Lao Wang is a senior shareholder, he analyzed: "With such a large trading volume, it is likely that old shareholders are taking the opportunity to flee." Novice leeks take over, and old shareholders settle for safety, I have seen a lot of this situation. "
The future is uncertain: how should investors respond?
After such a day of violent volatility, the future trend of the A-share market has become even more uncertain. Some people believe that this is only a short-term adjustment, and there is still room for growth in the future; There are also concerns that this could be a sign of a bullish peak.
Faced with this situation, how should new investors respond? Professionals recommend that you first stay calm and don't let short-term fluctuations affect your judgment. It is necessary to do a good job in risk management and allocate funds reasonably. It is necessary to strengthen study and improve one's investment ability.
Looking back over the past five years, the A-share market has experienced similar sharp fluctuations on many occasions. On February 25, 2019, the Shanghai Composite Index rose 5.6% in a single day, the largest one-day increase in nearly four years. But in the following trading days, there was another correction in the market. This shows that large market volatility is not uncommon, and investors need to be mentally prepared.
As an ordinary shareholder, seeing today's market, I also have mixed feelings in my heart. On the one hand, I'm happy that the market is active, after all, it means more opportunities.
But on the other hand, I'm also worried about the new investors who may be trapped. It is hoped that every investor can treat the market rationally and be wary of risks while enjoying the benefits.
This sharp fluctuation in the A-share market has undoubtedly sounded the alarm for all investors. It reminds us that the stock market is always full of opportunities and risks. In this fast-changing market, how should we grasp investment opportunities and how should we avoid risks? I am afraid that every investor needs to think carefully about this question.
