Question 1 Amy is optimistic about the business prospect of the listed company Small-rice but she is not sure the best timing for purchasing its shares for long term investment. After seeking advice from Jacky, a financial expert, she decided to transfer part of her monthly salary to the designated investment account on the first day of each month for buying 100 shares of Small-rice Company at the market price. Till October 2020, the record showed that she purchased Small-rice shares for a total of 5 times at per share prices: $208, $190, $210, 260, and $278, respectively. Commission plus brokerage fee for each transaction was 1% of the total buy or sell amount. During the period she owned the share, she received $950 in dividend from Small-rice. On 30 October 2020, the market price of Small-rice jumped up sharply and was trading at $305. Amy heard that Small-rice Company acquired an overvalued commercial building and deemed to be detrimental to shareholders' interest. She worried the share price would go down very soon. Therefore, she immediately placed a trading order through online banking and indicated that all her shares on hand would be sold if the share price went up to $313. After two hours, she received a message from the bank confirming that the transaction was successfully executed. To show her gratitude to Jacky, she took out $600 from the profit earned and bought him a dinner at a 5-star hotel. Required: (a) Name the investment strategy used by Amy.
