What happens when Nifty keeps falling, foreign investors keep selling and years of SIP investing fail to deliver the returns investors expected?
In this episode of Value for Money, Yashodhara Bajoria(
@YashodharaB) speaks with Neil Borate(
@ActusDei) about what the current market environment means for the regular Indian investor.
Neil questions the idea that simply continuing an SIP guarantees satisfactory long-term returns and points to previous periods when Indian equities went years without reclaiming their earlier highs. His central concern is concentration: many Indian retail investors, he argues, have too much of their portfolios tied to domestic equities.
The conversation examines FII selling, Nifty, high crude prices, inflation, the rupee and interest-rate risk, before moving beyond India to US equities, Korea, Taiwan, Japan, Indonesia and Chinese tech. Neil explains why investing globally does not necessarily mean simply buying expensive US technology stocks.
And within India, he identifies mid- and small-cap valuations as a major area of risk, while explaining why he is becoming relatively more positive on large caps as one component of a diversified portfolio.
If most of your wealth is invested in India, this conversation asks a bigger question: is staying invested enough—or do you also need to rethink where you are invested?
