Making more money doesn’t mean you’re winning.

Managing it well is the real deal.💼✨

You could be earning ₹1.5L and still counting pennies by the 20th…
Meanwhile, someone earning ₹80K is investing, saving, and sleeping stress-free. 😌📊

It’s not about how much you make,
It’s about what you do with it.

Here’s where people go wrong:

• Daily latte = monthly dent ☕💸

We come across numerous first-time investors who get 𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐝 by the downturns in the market. The voices echoes every next fortnight “ please stop my SIP” or “my portfolio is in red”. Let’s understand the market way rather than the grapevine you hear from the voices around you:

Always have your funds managed under the guidance of an analyst/planner.

Markets never go in one way, there will be blood on the dance floor.

The downturns are the golden time to invest higher amounts rather that running away or redeeming.

Investment is a long term strategy. Don’t watch your investments every week/fortnight.

Buy the “𝐏𝐀𝐍𝐈𝐂” and sell the “𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒𝐈𝐀𝐒𝐌”. When the market is in panic of selling collect the most of the undervalued stocks/units.

Rahul Dravid’s role as the India “A” coach can be compared to a long-term investment strategy. Dravid concentrated on developing a deep talent pool instead of seeking immediate success. His work with young cricketers laid a solid foundation. Players like Shubman Gill, Rishabh Pant, and Shreyas Iyer benefited from his long-term vision

Its not important that the returns you get today be good enough. What more important is that the future and the target of the investments meet the actual performance.

“Specialized Investment Funds” are a recent addition to the investment kitty approved by SEBI, These are helpful for smaller investors who found PMS(Portfolio management services), AIF(Alternative Investment Fund) entry level 1cr/50lac respectively not achievable.

🌱 SIF has a mind of a mutual fund with the benefits of PMS built into it, So if a scripts(share) is going down then SIF can bet money on it as short sell also(mutual funds aren’t allowed this)
🌱 The SIF starts at 10 Lakhs
🌱 Managed by licensed advisors only
🌱 With taxation now above 12.75 lakhs/annum and disposable income increased this can be a go to product for people who found PMS/AIF expensive.
🌱 Investors with a higher risk appetite than those of MFs can choose them.

📍India is ranked 9th in terms of export deficit (nations which export more than they import from US).
📍 The deficit for US is approx. 3.6% ( imports in US by India is this much more than US exports to India).
📍US has put a 25% each tariff for Canada and Mexico(a ₹100 product sent from them will have a ₹25 tax which has to be payed by the exporter) similarly China with 10% tariff.
📍The Canada and Mexico tariff(starting 4th) have been paused for next 30 days and China’s tariff will start from 10th Feb.
📍China though is the largest exporter to the US but has only 10% tariffs because it’s so deep in products that higher tariffs on Chinese products could effect inflation in US.
📍China has also imposed a retalitary tariff on US as high as 15% on coal, crude, large EV’s(Tesla cyber truck) and has initiated a monopoly investigation on “Google”.

What’s in it for India
☘️ Electronics being the highest of exports category from China can be dainted, We already have a PLI scheme running and mobile phone manufacturing infra being upgraded from last couple years, This can be a bolster for the mobile industry.
☘️ India in the budget has cut down on taxes for American made motorcycles this was done earlier(last Trump regime) also and now has been further slashed.
☘️ Modi is to meet Trump this month, They can finalize a trade deal. Both sides have shown hints(US not putting India on tariffs)

☘️ 10 Years
Invest in a SIP for minimum of 10 years, this more the merrier as the compounding would have the cherry on top after these years.

☘️  10 % XIRR
Expect a return of 10% annually, you may get 15-18% depending on the markets performance but calculate your investments at 10% for future endeavors.

☘️ 10% Step Up
Have a minimum of 10% added to you SIP amount annually, this would make the investments grow broader and the returns handsome.

i.e.: If you have a salary of 50 K. With a SIP of 15K, Make it 16.5K the next year and an extra 10% subsequently.
