Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the investment strategies for index funds, emphasizing the importance of understanding index rebalancing and its impact on investment performance [6][7][8]. Group 1: Index Rebalancing - Index rebalancing refers to the adjustment of constituent stocks in an index according to specific rules, which can lead to buying high and selling low during market fluctuations [6][7]. - Regular rebalancing can cause indices like the CSI 500 and CSI 1000 to follow a pattern of buying stocks that have risen significantly and selling those that have fallen, potentially exacerbating market volatility [7][8]. Group 2: Historical Context - The phenomenon of indices chasing performance was observed during the 1990s tech bubble in the U.S., where stocks associated with the internet saw significant price increases, leading to their inclusion in major indices like the Nasdaq 100, which later suffered during the market correction [8]. Group 3: Solutions to Mitigate Risks - Two strategies are proposed to mitigate the risks associated with index rebalancing: 1. Consider strategy indices that do not rely on market capitalization for stock selection, thus avoiding the pitfalls of performance chasing [11][12]. 2. Explore enhanced index funds, which invest 80% in index constituents while using 20% for active management to avoid stocks with clear bubbles [13][14].

Group 2: Risks and Considerations - Both individual stocks and index funds carry market volatility risks, but individual stocks also face operational risks due to the finite lifespan of companies [12][14]. - Historical data shows that a significant percentage of companies listed in the U.S. stock market have disappeared over time, indicating the inherent risks of individual stock investments [16][22]. Group 3: Index Fund Advantages - Index funds possess a unique ability to adapt and replace older companies with new ones, effectively achieving longevity in investment [24][25]. - The article notes that the composition of indices, such as the ChiNext Index, has changed significantly over the past decade, demonstrating the dynamic nature of index investing [27][28]. - Ordinary investors are encouraged to start with index funds, which are easier to manage and less risky compared to individual stocks [30][36]. Group 4: Recommended Indexes - Suitable index funds for ordinary investors include broad-based indices like the CSI 300 and strategy indices such as the A-share leader strategy [31][32]. - For global stock market investments, global stock indices are recommended, although there may be restrictions on purchasing overseas funds from mainland investors [33][35].
