最近跟风尝试猪肉炼油，满心期待复刻视频里的香酥油梭子和清亮油脂。跟菜市场老板说明来意后，他直接推荐了纯肥肉，说炼出的油比猪板油更香。我嫌切肉麻烦，就用绞肉机把肥肉绞得碎碎的，想着油渣能更细腻，结果炼油时翻动不及时，肉碎因为受热太集中直接糊了锅，最后只能连油带渣一锅端，好好的尝试就这样翻车了。
晚上听了一节投资理财课，才发现自己对行情的判断偏差不小。我一直以为节后才刚起步的春季行情，其实已经提前启动十天了 —— 大 A 悄悄走出 13 连阳，创下历史新高，我特意去查了上证指数，果然如此。
后市会如何演绎？突然觉得必须学点技术分析的东西，否则太容易错过机会、踏空行情、卖飞筹码。以前我只认价值投资，可看多了市场的涨涨跌跌，才意识到 “唯价值投资论” 并不适合普通人。
I recently tried making lard from pork, eager to copy the crispy cracklings and clear lard I saw in videos. When I told the market butcher what I wanted, he just suggested pure fatty pork, saying it makes tastier lard than pork leaf lard.
I hated cutting the meat, so I ground it into small bits with a grinder, hoping the cracklings would be finer. But I didn’t stir often enough while cooking. The tiny meat pieces got too hot too fast and burned. In the end, I had to scoop out everything—lard and burnt cracklings mixed together—and my attempt was a total fail.
That night, I took an investment class. I finally saw how wrong my market call had been. I thought the post-holiday spring rally was just starting, but it had actually begun ten days earlier. The A-share market had quietly scored 13 straight up days and hit a new all-time high. I checked the Shanghai Composite Index to be sure, and it was true.
Where will the market go next? I suddenly knew I needed to learn some technical analysis. Otherwise, I’ll keep missing opportunities, sitting on the sidelines as prices rise, and selling winning stocks too early. I used to only believe in value investing, but after watching the market go up and down so many times, I’ve realized that the "value-investing-only approach" isn’t right for regular people.
