Dip buyers may be burned again as another U.S. stock rally falters
Friday’s swoon in U.S. stocks is helping drive home a humbling message for investors: buying dips may have worked for the last decade, but it’s been a losing strategy so far in 2022.

As markets have tumbled, wary investors have cut their stock holdings this year in favor of safer terrain, drawn by higher yields on everything from Treasuries to money market accounts.
