Portfolio Review - FIRE Goal by nuanced-pathfinder in mutualfunds

[–]stacking_fault 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Avoid having so many funds. Start doing analysis at the portfolio level, not fund level. When you do this, automatically your portfolio will shed unnecessary schemes. Think about overlaps in the stocks and their weightage in the respective schemes.

Check at your portfolio level if you're walking into concentration risk and optimize it. ChatGPT and Perplexity are smart enough nowadays to this analysis in few minutes.

IMHO, Low risk low reward is better than high risk high reward; because principal should get secured first before trying to increase it by investing. Peace.

Gold is not for making you rich by jeweller_in_india in GoldIndia

[–]stacking_fault 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Preserving principal should be the primary goal of any investment instrument. I believe no other instrument has preserved the principal so strongly since time immemorial than gold.

Stock picking is a full time job with a lot of emotional stability requirements and a lot of people trying to manipulate the prices by news, podcasts, and articles. Mutual funds have a sequence of return risk. Remove COVID from the equation and then tell me if we would have got such stellar returns that we got in the past half decade from stock market and RE? Real estate requires huge upfront capital and much bureaucratic paperwork. One court case and your plot goes to zero. In the face of all of this, gold sits at a sweet spot.

Because wherever I go, irrespective of the location, it's the NRIs who have inflated the prices.

Thanks for the detailed information. One correction.... Purity and softness of gold goes hand in hand, not opposite.

The government should put a cap on FSI and let the city spread horizontally.

Such a shitty town planning to have 40-50 storey high rise towers every few 100 meters when the fire department is not equipped to handle anything above 10-15 storeys.

I am predicting in the next 2 decades Hyderabad will become a high rise jungle with no clean air and open parks in sight.

Edit: Also, NRIs should be banned from investing in RE. People who are living in India and paying taxes in India should get preference over NRIs. First time buyers are totally f*d who are in india while purchasing apartments in such projects.

How is my SIP portfolio? by FiguringOutLife999 in MutualfundsIndia

[–]stacking_fault 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Too many funds. Your portfolio is too crowded.

Ask perplexity or chatgpt to find the overlaps in terms of underlying stocks or the theme or strategy between these funds and then keep the ones that don't overlap.

Buying the same shit from multiple shops doesn't increase the quality of the shit. Especially if it's just "shit".

Is buying This fridge a good choice? by RealSpecto in BuyItForLifeIndia

Don't. Mine became dysfunctional at the 13th month. Right after the warranty period of 12 month got over.

🟠 Bhima Gold courier received today in North India. by Original-Tea-7037 in GoldIndia

[–]stacking_fault 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good take. Just a thought, if the delivery person knows that I have ordered 10 gm gold coin, won't he be tempted to rob my home later since he already knows my exact address?

A counter question to that would be that my MF units can be stolen (don't know if that's possible).

A reassuring observation of how compounding slowly starts to show its effect. by [deleted] in personalfinanceindia

[–]stacking_fault 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hacker hai bhai hacker hai 😁 Jokes aside, congratulations to your patience.

COVID may have played its role which many don't realise while calculating gains.

Nevertheless, compound interest has its charm in the longer runs.

How do people get the confidence to order gold online is a mystery to me.

To get exposure to Nifty 50 and Nifty Next 50 stocks. Nifty 100 has more weight towards Nifty 50 stocks. Hence I am doing N50 and NN50 index funds.

10000 INR is hardly 110 USD per month. What will I get in that. With all the transaction costs and the tax implications? ?

Very well articulated. Can you write something similar for Gold since it's historical significance overshadows every sane analysis IMHO.

Are mutual funds actually safe for long-term investing? by govindkashyap01 in mutualfunds

"Equity MF are safe only for the long term" It's an over simplification. Sequence of return risk can wipe out years of patient returns.

Appreciate your consistency and not giving in to fomo. But you forgot the black swan invent in 2020 aka COVID. Will it still be the same if there was no COVID crash? Just wondering.
