Q & A:
1 What advice do you have for those investors who invested at the absolute peak of the market and are now watching it fall continuously for the last 4 months?
2 Seeing that the recent market jump came right after a ceasefire, does this mean the market is bound to fall even further ahead?
3 What should we actually call this current market scenario? Has the market crashed, or is this just a steep correction?
4 Given that we are seeing stocks available at highly attractive prices right now, is this a time to panic or a time to make money?
5 Is the stock market currently completely news-driven? Does it just randomly react every time a sudden piece of news breaks out?
6 Now that it is clear that market prices are attractive, where exactly should an investor put their money, and how should they move forward?
7 Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) are pulling their money out of India, indicating their trust in our market is shaking. When FIIs are withdrawing, what should a retail investor do? Since they are pulling out, shouldn’t retail investors pull their money out too?
8 What should be the future strategy for those investors who have already allocated their money into Mid-cap and Small-cap funds?
9 I do not want to keep too many funds in my portfolio. Could you please tell me two more funds to complete a 3-fund portfolio?
10 The ₹1 Lakh Allocation: Suppose I gave you ₹1 Lakh to invest entirely in the stock market right now. In what exact manner or allocation would you invest this money?
11 What exactly is this Volatility Index (VIX)?
12 Whenever the VIX falls below 15, it indicates a bullish market. Can I track this index consistently and use it as an indicator to invest a good amount of money when it hits 12, 13, or 14?
