Listen to a Business English Dialogue about Selling on the good news
Adam: Hey Emery, have you heard about selling on the good news in finance?
Emery: Yeah, I think it’s when investors sell their stocks after positive news causes the stock price to rise.
Adam: That’s correct. It’s a strategy used to lock in profits when a stock’s price is high.
Emery: How does selling on the good news differ from buying on the bad news?
Adam: Buying on the bad news is when investors purchase stocks after negative news causes the stock price to drop, hoping for a rebound.
Emery: Are there any risks associated with selling on the good news?
Adam: Well, one risk is that the stock price may continue to rise after selling, causing investors to miss out on potential gains.
Emery: So, it’s important for investors to carefully assess the situation before deciding to sell?
Adam: Absolutely. Investors should consider factors like the company’s fundamentals, market conditions, and their own investment goals before making any decisions.
Emery: Thanks for explaining that, Adam. Selling on the good news sounds like a strategy that requires careful consideration.
Adam: No problem, Emery. It’s important for investors to weigh the potential risks and rewards before taking any action.
