Hi Akshat,
You once mentioned that if planning to invest ₹50k for someone just starting to invest in stock market, one should invest in 4-5 stocks max, with about ₹10k in each stock. What is the logic behind this, and why should not one buy like 10-15 different stocks with potential for diversification ?

This market is one very complicated place and most people pay more attention to the shiniest positions on the graph which is why it will always remain a cash den for people who know where to look. Get a help and have your money work for you.

The stock market provides a place where companies raise capital by selling shares or shares to investors. Shares give shareholders voting rights, as well as a residual claim on corporate earnings in the form of capital gains and dividends.
But it is better to Invest in Cryptocurrencies because you earn more and better.
In my role as a financial planner, I serve clients with different income levels. But my goal is the same for everyone I know. I want to help wealthy families continue to grow wealth while helping young families achieve their financial goals. Your investment creates a safe haven for the future and helps you weather the economic crisis<><

The slowest mutual fund disclaimer I have ever heard 😂

You are not factoring the volume factor of such ETFs. Anyone who thinks to invest long term in index ETFs wouldn't mind the 4-5 working days time for redemption. What if there are no buyers when you try to unload 25L worth ETFs in 2035? So it doesn't make sense to buy ETFs for large amount long term. It only makes sense if you are a small or tiny investor in indices.

You are the only one explaining the types of Index fund, rest all are just shouting that index funds are less risky investment. Thank you.

Do not agree with his final recommendation of mix and match between market cap and equal weighted index fund. The reason being, the companies are the same, the weightage differs, so for a retail investor, the difference will be miniscule. However if you do mix and match, you are buying the same stocks in two different scheme

Example
If you mix and match - Reliance will be 10.66% (market cap) plus under equal weightage you will get 2% = So eventually you will be buying the same stock resulting in a total of 12.66%. So how does it really benefit you.

Neither are you diversifying or adding value to your portfolio if you mix and match.

Also note that under the market cap basis, the lowest weightage is 0.50% for few stock, so the net difference between market cap and equal weightage basis is 1.50%. For a retail investor the net return is insignificant.

The ideal thing is based on your strategy opt for one index fund either equal weight or market cap basis BUT DEFINITELY NOT MIX AND MATCH BOTH. Use the extra money to invest in another fund such as nifty next 50 instead of mix and match.

Why are you not putting disclosure that this is a sponsored video by DSP. These are the basic things which you should do. I am sure you are aware of this, I think it is time to question DSP as to how and why they allowed you to use their name if this is not sponsored.

[DhruvSharma]

You should mention that this is a sponsored post by DSP. C'mon man, seriously?

[ichchhityadav]

Thank you for this video, Akshat! Could you make a separate video on liquid debt funds? I'm struggling to understand which one and how to invest in these. Looking forward to this video. :)

Why batting for DSP? It is not the best mutual fund house in our country. Or, are your videos being sponsored by DSP?
