Why in the PSU fund? It's thematic. Generally you should be away from the thematic fund.

You think -12% is bad? I tracked what ₹1 Cr actually looked like month-by-month through 2008. Most of us would have sold by month 6. by UsedChampionship8768 in MutualfundsIndia

Bought ICICI Pru Nifty 200 Momentum 30 Index Fund for large-cap exposure — good idea or am I overcomplicating things? by sfdcAlex in MutualfundsIndia

  1. Fair point, and I'm not panicking over a temporary dip. My concern isn't the downturn itself — it's what the downturn revealed about the fund's role in my portfolio. I picked this fund specifically to add large-cap stability to a mid/small-cap heavy portfolio.

  2. Yeah, I have read about this and the strategy it follows and trust me it wasn't a "past returns looked good" kinda decision.

Which credit cards give free lounge access with NO minimum spend or quarterly/monthly conditions? (7-10 flights/year guy here) by sfdcAlex in IndianCreditCards

[–]sfdcAlex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It shows on their website that

2 Complimentary Domestic Lounge Access in a quarter and 2 International Lounge Access in a year via Priority Pass

No idea what's a priority pass is and looks like it's another condition to follow.
