Is buying the dip still the best strategy? The average return when buying the dip in the S&P 500 varies based on timeframe.
Within 6 months of buying a -10% decline, the average return has been +13% compared to a +4% return when holding stocks through the pullback and recovery. Within 12 months, the "buy the dip" strategy has returned a +22% gain, beating a +5% return with the buy and hold strategy. On the other hand, buying dips over a 5-year period has returned +33%, well below a +75% from simply holding. In other words, buying the dip has been a successful strategy during periods of market volatility.
