Is "Buy the Rumor, Sell the News" A Good Trading Strategy?
"Buy the rumor, sell the news" refers to a trading strategy where a trader buys a security based on speculation about an upcoming news announcement or data, and then sells the security once the news is made public.
1. Why we don't buy the news?
When a good news event comes out, and the price rises, entering on that good news release can potentially be the worst time to enter the market.
That is when everyone else who bought the stock at the lower price may be getting out of the market in order to reap a profit.
2. How to“Buy the Rumor, Sell the News”?
A common example is trading based on the expectation on a company's quarterly earnings report.
Perhaps there's a rumor that a company is expected to provide more revenue to shareholders than previously thought. In that case, traders will buy the stock quickly to take advantage of increased dividends or stock prices.
Once the company release its results and the stock rises on strong revenue, the traders will sell their shares to turn a profit.
3. This strategy might sometimes be inaccurate
Disadvantages of the strategy include lack of accuracy and potential loss of opportunity on decisions not made quickly enough
No one can time the market with absolute certainty and buy the rumor, sell the news trading strategy is no different. There can be a number of reasons why this strategy could fail to yield a profit for traders.
For example,
in a bear market a company that beats expectations in its quarterly earnings may still see its stock price fall because the good news may not have lived up to the hype.
$Baidu(BIDU)$ released its latest earnings this week. Although it beated expectations, the share price dropped after the results.

🌟🌟🌟原则上，买入谣言卖出消息听起来是一个很好的交易策略，但真的是这样吗？这是对该股未来好消息的预期，但现实是事情可能会出错。然后股票价格暴跌，交易者亏损。
对我来说，这就像把握市场时机，但众所周知，市场中的时间才是最重要的。投资是一场马拉松，而不是sprint。因此，更重要的是购买基本面坚实、护城河宽阔的优质股票，这些股票将具有弹性，并在未来呈指数级增长。
这是我的投资风格，也是我长期财富增长的基本策略。这绝对不是买谣言卖新闻的风格！

对于新手甚至有保守倾向的有经验的投资者来说，最好避免“买谣言，卖事实”的策略。远离这种方法的另一个原因是，新闻发布之前或之后的时刻是最糟糕的交易时间，因为理论和现实之间存在矛盾。
没有任何来自内部人士的信息，我们无法准确预测线路的走向。虽然外汇交易中唯一确定的是不确定性，但这种情况比其他情况风险更大。这就是为什么利用市场对新闻发布的兴奋可能是最糟糕的交易时机。 @Tiger_chat
Stocks can potentially experience big price spikes based on speculation and rumors. Often, these hype-fueled spikes outweigh the reaction to actual news.
It doesn’t make sense at first. But a lot of things in the stock market don’t make sense until you study, learn, and start to understand how trading really works.
The stock market is forward-thinking. Most people are trying to anticipate what will happen in the future. I like to study the past and look for patterns. That helps me find ‘buy the rumor, sell the news’ plays that I can get in on and ride the wave of anticipation and hopefully generate profits. @Tiger_chat

I look for trading opportunities by analyze intra-day chart. It is very important for me to diligently monitor intra-day chart to get a cue of when to enter and when to exit. @nickname168 @luv2trade @Tiger_chat
这个怎么样？：
“谣言……买入。非谣言……卖出。”
