A-shares will most likely jump up a few points at the open today, but how high can they really go? To be honest, it's hard to say for sure right now.
In the short term, the market might hold up and keep rising until Wednesday. But by Thursday and Friday, you'll need to keep a close eye on market sentiment—various expectations will start to be realized, and it's hard to say whether things will take a turn for the worse at that point.
There's a major risk that needs to be mentioned in advance: on December 19, the Japanese yen might see an interest rate hike. Don't underestimate this—if it really happens, US stocks, cryptocurrencies, and gold will probably all tremble. A-shares won't be able to escape either; when sentiment spreads, a sharp drop would be quite normal.
But looking at it from another angle, what if this bearish news actually pushes the market to a temporary low? That could actually be a good thing—it would clean out weak holders ahead of the spring rally, making the subsequent rebound even stronger.
So in the short term, focus on risk; in the long term, look for opportunities. The most important thing in this round is to keep a steady mindset.

Will the Yen's rate hike really cause such a crash? Feels exaggerated.
Don't jump in before Wednesday; the risk is too high.
Just let the shakeout happen; I don't have anything right now anyway.
Talking about long-term opportunities every time, but they never come.
When will the rate hike arrive? I've been waiting all along.
Relax my mindset? Bullshit, as soon as my account turns red, I get anxious.
If it really crashes on Thursday and Friday, I'll start buying the dip.

On the day the yen raises rates, it's probably another round of retail investors getting fleeced—basically, they're just waiting to cash in.
If things bounce before Wednesday, just let it go; I've long gotten used to the Thursday market reversals.
How many times have we heard the "shakeout" excuse? Whenever the market drops, it's always called a shakeout.
No one can say for sure where the real opportunities are, but when it's time to take a loss, it's always unexpected.
Instead of staring at the charts, it's better to make some extra money elsewhere. Don't let these anticipated events mess with your mindset.
Keeping your cool doesn't help much—if you can't outrun the big players, it's all for nothing.

We really need to keep a close eye on this yen rate hike; crypto will definitely be the first to react.
Be cautious about a sentiment reversal on Thursday and Friday, don’t get too optimistic.
I've heard the "shakeout" theory too many times; it's still unclear whether it's real this time.
There’s indeed a lot of risk in the short term, but if a low point shows up, it could actually be a buying opportunity.
Keep your mindset steady—don’t let a 2-3% fluctuation scare you into making rash moves.

This round of yen interest rate hikes... crypto is going to suffer
If you're going to buy the dip, do it before Wednesday; by Thursday it might be over
Let the shakeout happen, only after clearing out the weak hands can spring take off
Mindset is really key, don't panic
This round in the A-shares market is really testing psychological resilience

On the day the yen raises interest rates, there’ll probably be another wave of sharp declines—this rhythm feels all too familiar.
There’s still a chance to ride the wave before Wednesday; on Thursday and Friday, we’ll just have to see what the market gives us.
Honestly, if the market really plunges to a new low, it might actually feel refreshing—at least it would save us from repeated choppy moves later.
Mindset is key; I don’t believe I’ll get stuck at the very top.
Gold and crypto are both shaking, there’s no way A-shares can stay unaffected.
Weak hands need to be cleared out—maybe this time we can really set the stage for a spring rally.
On the eve of a rate hike, you still have to be cautious entering the market.
If we’re going to drop, let’s just get it over with; the endless grinding is the most annoying part.
You can’t avoid the short-term pain, but the real opportunity to make money is in the long run.

The yen rate hike this time is really a bit risky. When the time comes, crypto will have to take a hit along with it.
---
Just get in on the rebound before Wednesday, don’t overthink it.
---
“Shaking out the weak hands” sounds easy, but when the price really crashes, who can actually stay calm?
---
Spring rally? Still thinking about spring? Let’s just get through this winter first.
---
What’s the point of bouncing a few points? The key is not to plunge.
---
Whenever the US stock market shakes, we have to follow and suffer too. That’s the most annoying part.
---
Everyone can say “look for opportunities in the long term, watch out for risks in the short term,” but how many people actually dare to buy the dip?
---
I already expected the market to flip on Thursday and Friday. The question is, do you dare to buy the dip?
---
Don’t talk about clearing out floating chips, it’s just a scare tactic to make people sell at a loss.
---
Gold, US stocks, and crypto all shaking together—now that’s quite a lineup.

This yen rate hike really needs to be watched closely, crypto is going to suffer.
---
You can still play before Wednesday, but you have to run by Thursday.
---
If it’s a shakeout, so be it. In the long run, it’s all opportunities anyway.
---
Losing your mindset hurts more than losing money, that really hits home.
---
Is all the weak-handed capital cleared out? Ha, there will just be new bag holders then.
---
What’s the point of bouncing a few points in the short term? The key is still to watch the yen’s movements.
---
A-shares really can’t escape the influence of overseas markets, face reality.
---
I bet five bucks there will be a reversal on Friday.

The day the yen raises interest rates, there will probably be a bloodbath, and crypto won't be able to escape either.
Anyone who tried to buy the dip before Wednesday was just dreaming, haha.
If this dump really creates a new low, the real party won't start until before the Spring Festival.
In the short term, it's about betting on sentiment; in the long term, it's about betting on policy. I'm betting on the latter.
Everyone keeps talking about shakeouts, it's getting old, but in the end, it just goes sideways and kills off traders.

Yen rate hike? Now this is interesting—the crypto market is going to shake, and A-shares won’t be able to escape either. We’ll have to see how the market reacts on Thursday and Friday.
There might still be some action before Wednesday, but things get shaky after that. If this round of shakeout ends up hitting new lows, it could actually be an opportunity.
Short-term volatility is normal, but in the long run, it’s actually a chance to get in—the key is to hold on.
Honestly, with this shockwave from the yen rate hike, crypto and US stocks will probably take the first hit.
It's that time of year again for a mindset test—stay calm and don’t panic.
The mood on Thursday and Friday is what really matters. If you panic beforehand, you might need to reflect on yourself.
By the way, if this round really creates new lows, isn’t that the best time to build a position?
A-shares will most likely jump up a few points at the open today, but how high can they really go? To be honest, it's hard to say for sure right now.
In the short term, the market might hold up and keep rising until Wednesday. But by Thursday and Friday, you'll need to keep a close eye on market sentiment—various expectations will start to be realized, and it's hard to say whether things will take a turn for the worse at that point.
There's a major risk that needs to be mentioned in advance: on December 19, the Japanese yen might see an interest rate hike. Don't underestimate this—if it really happens, US stocks, cryptocurrencies, and gold will probably all tremble. A-shares won't be able to escape either; when sentiment spreads, a sharp drop would be quite normal.
But looking at it from another angle, what if this bearish news actually pushes the market to a temporary low? That could actually be a good thing—it would clean out weak holders ahead of the spring rally, making the subsequent rebound even stronger.
So in the short term, focus on risk; in the long term, look for opportunities. The most important thing in this round is to keep a steady mindset.
