English term or phrase: buy the rumor, sell the news
Estoy traduciendo un artículo financiero en el que sale esta frase. Este es el contexto:

2018 brought equity and credit market struggles, but this volatility was not about a sea change in macroeconomic fundamentals. Rather, the volatility was more about investors **buying the rumor** of late-cycle fiscal stimulus and heightened expectations for economic activity and earnings growth, only to **sell the news** when stronger short-term growth brought forward tighter financial conditions.

Encontré varias explicaciones de la frase (The saying "buy the rumor, sell the news" comes from the phenomenon of stocks trading up into "big" announcements, and then (often) selling off shortly thereafter. source: https://www.davemanuel.com/investor-dictionary/buy-the-rumor... ), pero ninguna traducción.

Alguien conoce una forma de decirlo en español? Gracias!

neutral  OSWALDO MESIAS: Consulta: esta definición, ¿indicaría un mal manejo financiero? Entiendo que es: comprar alto por la expectativa, y tener que vender bajo, cuando venga el golpe de la realidad. ¿Es así? Gracias.

  -> No. Al contrario. Es "conventional wisdom" - es demasiado tarde comprar cuando ya es noticia y todo el mundo lo sabe.
