Sir big admirer of your work on YT. You have opened new avenues for people who can't afford financial managers, that too by educating us. Also kudos to your production team, they are doing great work. "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime" 💥🔝
Another amazing video Shankar. An absolute gem. I love how you don’t impose your thoughts on what the right strategy could be but instead make us think on what could work for us basis our goal and risk appetite. I feel this video will age very well and it be one that I will be revisiting for sure.
This one is really awesome , I have mapped my investments for a specific goal and needed to make adjustments, Active fund , mid cap , small cap, sector based funds international market funds , and a small bunch of stocks . All these were possible because of your videos from your ET money days . Not to forget PPF & NPS is also doing good .Thanks 🙏 Shankar
This is one of the best videos I've watched on building a stable and strong portfolio. It sums up everything so clearly, covering every important point. I used to struggle with understanding entry and exit points, but this video has clarified it all for me. Your content is always so insightful. You’re truly an excellent mentor, making everything easy to understand. Thank you for sharing such valuable knowledge. I truly appreciate the effort you've put into this-it's a lasting legacy. Now it's time for me to put knowledge into action.
You are most welcome. I'm glad you found it useful .. you might some of the techniques really useful. Even if you don't find it right now, over time you're likely to do some variation of it. Wishing you the best!
Shankar - Love your approach of Investing. You deserve more and more subscribers- my best wishes. Keep the good work - people will join you. Reg Dara from Singapore & Norway
After watching many of your videos the first thing I do when I start watching is liking the video with a default expectation that i would definitely learn something and there would definitely be an aha moment. Thanks a ton for all the knowledge shared It is quite helpful and really adds a lot of clarity when choosing the assets to invest
Thank you 🙌 Yes pls, not everything will be golden but I try to put 2-3 nuggets of information that can help the viewer. I myself learn that way .. even something like the 8 hour training programs I attended during my employment .. while 7.8 hours was a filler, often there was a 15 minute of good advice which I used to carry back and it has helped me for many years in the future. Appreciate you taking these videos in the spirit in which these have been created
Wow ! Really Wonderful Video with holistic understanding of Successful Investment Portfolio, Cherry on the cake was knowing your personal experiences and improvements made was top notch 😊 Thanks a ton Shankar sir, always great researched video with practical structures, systems and approach👍
Another amazing top notch quality video sir . Lately , I had started ETF investment on dips and your video gives immense validation in my approach . Big admirer sir .
Great Video as always Mr. Shankar Nath. I am currently in the process of constructing an ETF only portfolio for long term wealth creation, because I feel the direct stocks are not for me, except for the very few familiar handpicked large cap stocks. I have used the combination of Growth + Momentum + Value + Alpha + International ETFs. I am also planning to review the portfolio every 6 months/1 year and book some profits and move it to Liquid and Gold ETFs. I am also using Liquid and Gold ETFs to park some money for investing during future crashes/opportunities. My only concern is the ETF liquidity, but I am very confident that the ETF market will gain more traction in the next 5-8 years and liquidity problem will be solved. Thanks, your videos are very knowledgeable and useful. 👍
@shankarnath Sir, please make a video on "How to handle Portfolio when it gets big". There is a lot of content for how to start investing but we need guidance on how to deal with a portfolio that becomes big eventually. We get stuck once our portfolio gets big.
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm deducing the setup/ideas shared in this video should work for upto 20 crores. If anything bigger, please use the services of a financial planners if wealth managers aren't already calling you for an appointment.
Sir, Wonderful Insights with lot of research and Hardwork is highly appreciated. Regarding Debt portion of an individual, I feel following could help to some extent. 1) Aggressive investors can keep 1 year lasting of house hold funds in safe instrument. 2) Moderate can keep 3 years of funds 3) Conservatives can keep 5 years of house hold funds in safe kitty. Rest all invested in high yield products. I keep 3 years funds in distributed in cash, FD and Debt funds and rest all in very aggressive micro, small and midcap direct stocks only. Thanks 🙏
Most welcome. Yes, it's an important language for investors -- all annual reports, earnings call transcripts, website information and financial statements come in English only.
This video was gold Shankar....absoluteky love the ckarity in which you present tge strategies at once making them accessible and executable. I have a question - what is considered the fairly valued PE ratio for midcap and smallcap, and what ratios for these would be considered good entry or exit points.
Thank you! Glad you liked it. For midcap 150 index PE ratio: pls use -- www.screener.in/company/id/1275143/ (avg is 28) For smallcap 250 index, pls use -- www.screener.in/company/id/1275142/ (avg is 29)
Hi Shankar, Loved your style of investing and thanks for sharing. I am in my 20's and fairly new to investing. Especially the way you have diversified your portfolio is quite good. It would be great if you could make a video about how young people can diversify their portfolio and what all options they can choose and how much weightage they can give.
Thanks for the suggestion. Two points -- 1) What do you see in this video that won't be befitting for a person in their 20s? (I tried critiquing but figure that I'm just running the blade for the heck of it; this construct works across age groups .. ofcourse with minor tweaks and personalizations) 2) Unlike people in their 30s & early 40s who are likely to have responsibilities -- the 20s person can be a) very less responsibility (parents working, unmarried) or b) very high responsibility (parents not working, maybe married). I'm not sure how to generalize something like this when I'm not a fan of one-size-fits-all approach. If you have any suggestions for me that doesn't involve making video segments for multiple scenarios, pls do let me know. I'll probably again go back to the point that this construct works across age groups with personalizations :)
Great Video, Thanks for sharing. I have a question on portfolio construct suggestion of having a momentum, value and growth across 3 different sizes. How this fares up with another great video - Nifty 50 fund along with Momentum is sufficient when we have a choose only 2 funds. Many funds suggested is going to overlap each other? Wanted to know your thoughts
Most welcome! 1. I really don't look at overlaps because practically, it's unavoidable. I'd rather prefer to have the stocks that give me the best chance of making money rather than worrying so much about spreading it thin. 2. Now, its a matter of comfort. I am comfortable working with 7-8 primary funds divided around the styles and mcap sizes I referred to in this video. For others, it might not be that convenient. Pls do as you please. 3. Kindly watch my upcoming video on Index Fund performance. I'm certain many Nifty 50 loyalists will be a bit disappointed
I feel blessed to watch your video and the content you share with people. Your videos are goldmine. All we need is to adjust and apply learning in our investment journey.. Make mistakes and improve as you mentioned in long term journey. This ETF series is eye opener for me. Thanks for all the efforts you and your team puts to make these videos. Jay Hind!!
Namaste Shankar- Some of us in 40s, find in ‘sandwich generation’, everything collides- child education, parents getting older need financial support & own retirement coming up. Many competing obligations, life feel overwhelming. How to gracefully navigate challenges & build finances?
Namaste to you too, Himanshu ji I'm in my mid-40s myself. My response to financial & societal responsibilities was to give myself the best chance at improving it. For instance -- 1. Family -- My parents live with me; we moved to a better society & I even convinced my sister & her family to take a place close by; I don't have children but have 2 nieces who are a handful 2. Job security -- I moved away from a corporate environment and built upon skills I had acquired (some) in my 20s and 30s. So technically I have a secured job now. 3. Health & lifestyle -- Because of self-employment, I'm able to work when I feel like, avoiding outside food, don't drive in traffic, take vacations when I feel like etc. I feel healthier although there is room to do better 4. Stress - This deserves a separate bucket. Haven't been under any stress for the last 2 years, I think life has become more minimalist for me which works well for me 5. Financials - Again, I believe one should give oneself the best chance of earning more. I didn't save/keep/invest enough in my 20s and 30s which is OK .. but in my 40s, I'm giving myself opportunities and building upside. For instance, RUclips has almost replaced my ET Money salary. I can double it by creating a Hindi channel (upside 1), I can grow the newsletter and monetize it (upside 2), can create smallcases that many viewers have been asking for (upside 3), am getting myself a small 1% stake in a fast growing business (upside 4). My point is -- wealth grows if one gives it the chance. How to do it, how to overcome one's fears is all upto every individual. Hope this helps.
@@shankarnath yes, this is helpful! Truly simple, but impactful and inspirational work. Makes me think that (it’s high time now) I should do some course correction and take actions with a plan. Thanks a ton for giving an honest and detailed response. Regards
Very good video. This video covers the core principles of portfolio building. Kudos to the video editor, he has done a good job. Content was very well presented, crisp yet exhaustive 👏
Insightful as always, for the grid value part I had shortlisted UTI 500 value 50 index fund which covers Large Mid and small cap.. I glad on the right path as I had created quite a similar portfolio.. Your channel influence probably 😊
#Question Hi Shankar , To much confused about investing in index fund( lot of them are in the market) i am planning to do sip horizon is 30+ years which index fund would be good nifty 50 ,nifty next 50 ,nifty 500 ,nifty 750 Which will have better returns
I'll be covering this in next week's video (Saturday release). I've examined dozens of indices with trailing returns going back to 15 years. Where possible, I've looked at rolling returns and SIP returns aswell.
@@shankarnath That's great but you also mentiones that we shouldn't look at the past returns... when should we look for past returns and when should we not ! What are some advantage and disadvantages of them
hello Shankar what are your thoughts on 1. maintaining SIPs and investing leftover savings at the end of the month 2. having different debt funds for different short term goals (getting a bike/expensive phone etc)
Hi, 1. I'm a fan of SIP. Investing leftovers seems like a great strategy & should be rewarding over the long run 2. My suggestion is -- reduce dependence on debt funds for short term. Instead block that amount in a fixed deposit. Your maturity is fixed and safety is high that way.
me too, as Warren Buffet said, "Do Not Save What Is Left After Spending, Spend What Is Left After Saving." all my SIPs/investments/savings are in the beginning of the month, a few days after the salary :)
Another Masterpiece Crafted by maverick Shankar Sir❤ Keep Posting These Gems Hatts off to your Research & insights Sir You are a life safer for retail Investors Like us 😊🙏🙏🤗
Loved this video Shankar ❤❤! ETFs are totally the instruments for future wealth creation. Be it long term or trading in ETFs , I have personally found them very useful. I just hope that there will be more sectoral ETFs especially covering Real estate/ Manufacturing/ Defence/ Oil and gas and most importantly we need actively managed ETFs as well as Nifty 50 reverse ETF... Financial product creation is simply too slow in our country..dunno why? These are already there in US ...
As always awesome video sirji! 🎉 Lot of takeaways and loved the last pointer around the exit and entry based on returns using nifty 50 PE ratio over different time horizons .
Really helpful video.. i have shared your link with my family members too. I had a question, is it possible to automate SIPs to ETFs. Thankyou.pls continue your good work.
Most welcome & thx for paying it forward. Yes, SIP automation is very common nowadays and most platforms offer it. Just try it on your trading platform & if you're facing an issue, write a note to the customer service team. Sometimes, designers hide it in the UI if there isnt much traction for this feature.
I just enjoy watching your videos so much, I have no connection to finance or accounting stuff, since I’m in stem but you make it seem so interesting that I’m feeling so inspired to learn about investing 😊
Hello sir, thanks for this detailed video on building a portfolio!! Can you please make a video ( or share some resources) on investing in Bonds directly vs Bond ETF discussing their liquidity, returns, and taxations, not able to find much information on this.
Glad you liked it. Thanks for the suggestion, there is a video I made on investing in government bonds during my ET Money days. Pls have a look at ruclips.net/video/BFjj2NkIf9o/видео.html
This was really very informative and interesting.. Though I have done some amount of asset allocation in the past your video has given me next level of thought to yrs k down and refine my portfolio.. thank you so much
Thank you for the insightful video. Given that the current PE ratio is around 23-25, do you suggest this is the right time to exit mutual funds and wait for the PE ratio to drop to around 18-19 before re-entering? Alternatively, if we are in SIP mode, should we continue with the SIPs and consider increasing them if the PE ratio drops to the 18-19 range? I would appreciate your guidance on this matter.
@@ramu222049 Sorry, I don't advice on specific schemes. That's the area of expertise of a financial advisor, may I request you to consult one in case of doubts.
This is a brilliant video. Thank you for the excellent overview on portfolio construction. As someone who is gradually shifting to ETFs, this was quite validating. One question, though: Given that equity investing is a long term game, how long should you test one investing style before shifting to another (e.g., soft cushion vs debt:equity split)? Or should you experiment with pockets of your portfolio with different styles for x amount of time before settling on something? Curious to know your thoughts on this.
Most welcome! With re: your question, anything long-term will require tweaks, changes and improvements from time to time. This applies to one's career, lifestyle, business etc. -- we all do it differently but generally we test out scenarios, talk to others, read up more, continue multiple paths until we get comfortable with one etc. My point is -- there is no generic rule/playbook to this
Most welcome. Yes, I still have momentum and value funds. I'm following a 50:50 approach with N200M30 and N500V50 (as I had explained in a previous video on 2 Funds for Lifetime) and I also have a momentum allocation in Nifty SmallCap 250 Momentum Quality 100. Momentum is a sort of permanent allocation for me
@shankarnath: one of the issues I face with goals based investing is how can I keep track tag my investments with goals? Also, say I have 3 goals car, child education and home and I see that one fund in flexi cap is doing good and I would like to invest in it. So should I start 3 different sip in the same fund or have 3 different funds from 3 to different amcs?
It's better to work with a financial advisor for handholding. Personally, I follow a broad investing style wherein I am not precise with my calculations but very clear about the strategy. So in this case, if the strategy is clear that I have 5 goals, this is the target, this is where I am, this is the allocation needed -- then it isn't necessary to define particular schemes per goal. I follow this approach but other people might need a different pathway, that's why a financial planner is helpful to have
Thanks Shankar for this video. 13:02. I have momentum. For growth I chose Passive Flexicap. 3 X 3 has value & momentum. In your TWO MFs for lifetime video, you told about Momentum and Value switch. It is still applicable correct?
Hello. I don't use the switch theory anymore as I found it a little complicated and it doesn't support my portfolio construct. You'll have to see this for yourself.
While assesing one's own portfolio, should one consider cost of the house that one is staying in and car that one owns ( it depreciates)? Should one consider cost of gold jewellery ( not coins or glod bonds) as its generally not sold but may be passed on to next generation?
1. That's upto you, there is no generic rule to it. Personally I don't count it in my portfolio. 2. Again depends on you, I have not come across any generally accepted rule. I don't have gold jewellery so I won't know what to do
Very informative video for powerful portfolio building. 1. NPS investment (additional tax saving) also can be considered for long term/ retirement fund. 2. Gold ETF when ever gold dip also considered for low risk. Additionally can considered good corporate bonds whenever equity market in high for low risk with stable return
I have a qn- If our ultimate aim is to build a long term corpus Do we really need to exit when markets are high? I believe that will have a psychological impact, we may not become comfortable in keeping in our money in market ; portfolio churn or switching will be more frequent. Correct me if I am wrong.
"Markets are high" or "valuations are high" -- big difference! Can you clarify this? I do partial exits when the valuations are high (markets are high is not that relevant) and add more when valuations are low. Valuations can be high even when the markets are low and likewise, valuations can be low even when the market is at all-time highs.
What is your opinion on timing the ETF SIPs? Is blindly choosing some dates good or is it good to do manual SIPs when the price dips below a certain SMA? Say 9 day or 20 day?
Loved the video. How do you decide the percetage allocated to each grid block ? Also, if you assign ETF to each grid block isnt it too diversified and can become like nifty500? Shouldn't you take some and leave some for better portfolio returns?
Thank you! 1. Over time, I've found a comfort level. So for size, I use 50:25:25 between large, mid and small. For style, it's 70:15:15 between growth, value and momentum. This is for every investor to decide for oneself 2. That's the point, it's not Nifty 500 like because the ratio of large/mid/small is different there and styles are like all over the place. The problem with over-simplifying one's thought process is to negate everything. For instance, once one might look at Nifty 500, the mind might say "ye to Nifty 200 jaisa hi hai na? but with more companies". Then with Nifty 50, one might say "ye to Nifty 200 jaisa hi hai na, bas thode midcaps bhi hain". But if one looks carefully there are atleast 5 major differences between Nifty 50, Nifty 200 & Nifty 500. To put this together -- the idea here is to create a portfolio that has different sized-companies and styles of investing counteracting with each other. This balance offers stability to the portfolio and improves returns. 3. Sorry, I didn't understand the meaning of this take-it-or-leave-it line. Can you pls elaborate?
@@shankarnath Thanks for taking time to reply. 1. Understood your percentage allocation. I want to clarify, these percentages you got comfortable with over time on your gut feeling and there is no formula on deciding these exact percentages. 2. While I understand the fact that since the ratio of allocation in different caps and style is different and it will give returns on that basis. But I am uncertain on how to draw a boundary and where to a draw a boundary? Why would one decide to invest in Nifty 50 (say 84%) AND Nifty Next 50 (16%) when the same person can invest directly in Nifty100 ? Or on what parameters a person should decide to buy large,mid and small cap on his/her own OR buy Flexi cap directly ? 3. Shouldn't you take some and leave some for better portfolio returns? -> What I meant is why not take a little concentrated bets? Like not investing in say Nifty Next 50 . So that when these particular companies dont work, you're unaffected. Shouldn't we get better returns when we put money on some assets and leave other assets untouched. If we put money in all assets , wouldn't the whole portfolio get some average returns ?
@@nishujain9876 1. No formula, lots of experimentation & looking at data. Afterall, historical data is available over the last 18-19 years in the form of indices on niftyindices.com 2. Again, run the numbers and see for oneself. E.g. let's take the 2017 to 2021 period. How would a 100% smallcap fund have done versus 100% largecap fund versus 50%+50%. Which is more comfortable? The returns and risk are different 3. I take concentrated bets in stocks. That's what the satellite portfolio is for. The core portfolio is the diversified one that I keep untouched. 4. Difficult for me to answer on the multiple assets part. Different people might have differing views.
@@shankarnath Thank you for replying and taking your time to answer my queries. Really appreciate them. My takeaways are that investing is completely personal , and one can / should run the numbers to find the comfortability in their method. Everyone will have their opinions on asset allocation and how much diversification is required for them. But goal is to invest something and stay invested. Find a method that works for yourself and one you're comfortable with.
Hi sir -- ur video was very informative. But sir i hv 2 doubts 1. In 03:28, u hd mentioned about the list of ETFs, if say i dont hv demat account and if i buy such ETF MF without demat, is it possible ? Such as FoF options 2. In 09:33, if i make such a grid for investing in ETFs, what should be the proportionate amount one should keep for investing in such grid like format ? Sir, u might hv thought well before putting it in video? Right now i hd started an active large cap MF and willing to invest more in many easy MFs with less tension.
Hello. 1. Sure, you can do that aswell. It might be a bit expensive though but sure. 2. I can't advice for you but I use 50:25:25 for large, mid and small .. and 70:15:15 for growth, value and momentum
Well I’ve started a new portfolio for my kid wherein I’m investing in smallcap momentum quality 250 a portion in nifty 200 momentum 30 , nasdaq and gold etfs I don’t really have to buy individual stocks this allocation looks good to me, please do make more video on the new instruments by mirae like momentum quality smallcap midcap 400 and momentum quality small smallcap 250!
Great video dont worry about the time of the video if content is great then it doesn't matter. Also if u cud share all the funds in ir portfolio without numbers wud be great help to us
Thank you! I have too many funds (10 year old legacy, unable to prune it down) but the overall structure is exactly what you see in this video -- the 3x3 grid. Specifically, I follow 50:25:25 with re: mcap (large, mid and small) and 70:15:15 with re: style i.e. growth, value & momentum. This works for me.
Thank you Shankar for sharing your knowledge as SME. Requesting you to guide on how to invest 1 cr lumpsum at current market levels as the valuation are not comfortable. Thanks
Most welcome! If you aren't comfortable with current valuations, look at equity savings fund category. I explained this in a previous video (ruclips.net/video/6QKVRaNDvgc/видео.html); so you can explore having the money there at a low level of volatility (& still you wont be out of equity & receive equity taxation) and do an SWP into an equity scheme of your choice. This is what I'll do but since the amount is high, please feel free to consult a financial advisor
Thank you for your response. I really follow your content regularly and make required changes based on your suggestions. If I can get consultation from your side for lumpsum investment, kindly do let me know. Thank you once again for the awesome info you share with all of us
@@gauravpaliwal8384 Most welcome. Unfortunately, I don't do 1:1 paid consultations due to paucity of time on my part. If this changes in the future, I'll circle back
Thank you so much Shankar for all the great support you are providing to all individuals😊 Whenever you plan any additional services, I look forward to joining those.
Hello. For a better understanding of ETFs, please watch: ruclips.net/video/t86OsSL7Opk/видео.html .. and with re: mutual funds, there are tons of videos on the Internet. Pls watch a couple of such videos to have a better idea of these instruments
Respected sir, FD or debt funds better for long term safe investments say for more than 3 years I park my money in money market funds and in bit portion of overnight fund Somehow I try to avoid FD because of tax part when it matures Also I learnt money market fund is safer than FD, is it true I am allocating to equity as well but this particular question only related to safe investments alone
Sir I Have Invested in Momentum 30 and MidSmall Cap 400 ....... I also find to invest in Value Factor..... But I am confused whether to Choose Nifty 50 Value 20 ..Or... Motilal Oswal Enhanced Value ETF... PLEASE Guide me
@@shankarnath actually I have read lot of book , article, share market course, pdf , technical analysis, fundamental analysis. But one thing I missing is to judge valuation of a company. DCF method is not practical for retail investor. There is many assumptions. PEG ratio , evebita ratio, I can use. But some good future company like Zomato,,,good growth company is missing in screener, when I use this valuation metric. I want to know details about this topic, how you are valuaing company. Please consider my request if possible. Thank you
@@vivekanandasantra887 I never use one way of evaluating a company. Some places, I look at relative valuation, sometimes I use EV/EBITDA, in turnarounds I look at different metrics etc. etc. For a better idea on this, please watch my sector/industry analysis videos. On every sector (hospital, hotels, banks, life insurance, real estate, cement, sugar, specialty chemicals etc.), I have spent 18-20 mins each which I can never summarize in a single video. Pls watch them all and you'll have a much better idea on how to evaluate those companies. Those were gigantic exercises for me and I'm happy to report, a lot of money was made from those videos once I had the knowledge of what to look for. Hope this works for you too.

How can I add to position in a stock for longterm holding, where stock's price has run up too high from my "buy price" (initially I was skeptical -- now upset) ?.. Should I SIP or wait for a bear market (simple correction won't be sufficient).. Please enlighten us.. Thx..
Whats done is done. An analysis need not have a baggage of a "cheaper buy price" to it. Your focus should be on reviewing the stock based on present information. For example - a company was at an EPS of 10 in 2018 and you bought it then at 200 rupees a share .. so a PE of 20 and let's say that's the average historical PE for such a stock. Let's say today in 2024, the EPS is 80 and the stock is available for 1000 rupees a share. Hopefully you won't reject the stock because the price is up 5 times from when you bought it. You are negating the fact that the EPS is up 8 times during the same period. If you have some structure like this in place, then whenever you sense/see the opportunity you can swoop in with some lumpsum money and average up. You don't have to do an SIP per se as there will always be some or the other opportunity in the market
Thx Sir.. Now it's clear what to do.. Actually, whenever my entry price has been high, I've suffered since I'm mostly a buy & hold kind.. So kind of you, Sir..

Hello Shankar, Thanks a ton for your wonderful work. It is helpful and insightful. Every weekend, you are enhancing my way of thinking about finance and investment. While I also did some research mostly to simplify where to invest part. I came to a conclusion that investing for long in a Multi Asset Fund with an inbuilt balancing and dynamic allocation can be a very good candidate. While this seem to be a portfolio for more conservative style, I found that tge returns of funds in this category are also very good. I found Quant MAAF very attractive in this aspect. Add to this, a Momentum index fund, Alpha index fund a Multi cap flexi fund can be a very good mix. This, ofcourse is on top of safer instruments including SGB, EPF abd PPF that many people will have. Im sure my research is not well rounded as I recently started understanding this but would like your opinion on this kind or an article or video. The target is simpler, efficient and auto rebalancing. Thanks in advance!
Thank you for your kind words, I'm glad my work is helping you. Unfortunately I am not into personalized 1:1 advice at the moment. The RUclips channel is organized to educate in masses rather than advice in ones, very sorry about this!
@@દિવ્યચાવડા Some mistake during editing. The "reducing at accelarated pace" applies to the safety cushion only. That's because the safety cushion is not a % but an absolute amount and as my portfolio grows, I am dedicating more money towards my core and satellite portfolio which means consequently the % of safety cushion keeps going down. This is the stage of my investment journey that I am currently

After watching many of your videos the first thing I do when I start watching is liking the video with a default expectation that i would definitely learn something and there would definitely be an aha moment. Thanks a ton for all the knowledge shared It is quite helpful and really adds a lot of clarity when choosing the assets to invest
Thank you 🙌 Yes pls, not everything will be golden but I try to put 2-3 nuggets of information that can help the viewer. I myself learn that way .. even something like the 8 hour training programs I attended during my employment .. while 7.8 hours was a filler, often there was a 15 minute of good advice which I used to carry back and it has helped me for many years in the future. Appreciate you taking these videos in the spirit in which these have been created
Wow ! Really Wonderful Video with holistic understanding of Successful Investment Portfolio,
Cherry on the cake was knowing your personal experiences and improvements made was top notch 😊
Thanks a ton Shankar sir, always great researched video with practical structures, systems and approach👍
You are most welcome 🙌 Glad you liked it!
Excellent presentation , very informative…., great service to discipline investors with patience…..
Thanks 🙏 🙏
My pleasure. Glad you liked it! 🙌
I find your videos very useful and informative in my journey as a new investor. Thanks for making such good videos, appreciate all the work
Thank you. I am glad you liked my work 🙌
Another amazing top notch quality video sir . Lately , I had started ETF investment on dips and your video gives immense validation in my approach . Big admirer sir .
Glad you found this useful! 🙌
Great Video as always Mr. Shankar Nath.
I am currently in the process of constructing an ETF only portfolio for long term wealth creation, because I feel the direct stocks are not for me, except for the very few familiar handpicked large cap stocks.
I have used the combination of Growth + Momentum + Value + Alpha + International ETFs. I am also planning to review the portfolio every 6 months/1 year and book some profits and move it to Liquid and Gold ETFs. I am also using Liquid and Gold ETFs to park some money for investing during future crashes/opportunities.
My only concern is the ETF liquidity, but I am very confident that the ETF market will gain more traction in the next 5-8 years and liquidity problem will be solved.
Thanks, your videos are very knowledgeable and useful. 👍
Most welcome. Glad you found this useful
@shankarnath Sir, please make a video on "How to handle Portfolio when it gets big". There is a lot of content for how to start investing but we need guidance on how to deal with a portfolio that becomes big eventually. We get stuck once our portfolio gets big.
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm deducing the setup/ideas shared in this video should work for upto 20 crores. If anything bigger, please use the services of a financial planners if wealth managers aren't already calling you for an appointment.
One of the best I have seen. Thanks for this explanation.
Wow, thanks! Glad you like it 🙌
Sir,
Wonderful Insights with lot of research and Hardwork is highly appreciated.
Regarding Debt portion of an individual, I feel following could help to some extent.
1) Aggressive investors can keep 1 year lasting of house hold funds in safe instrument.
2) Moderate can keep 3 years of funds
3) Conservatives can keep 5 years of house hold funds in safe kitty.
Rest all invested in high yield products.
I keep 3 years funds in distributed in cash, FD and Debt funds and rest all in very aggressive micro, small and midcap direct stocks only.
Thanks 🙏
Most welcome, glad you found it useful. Thx for sharing your strategy
I learn a lot from you in every video you post. Thank you Shankar Ji.
Always welcome! Happy learning to you!
I am learning not only portfolio managemwnt but english also.

Thank you so much for all the videos and newsletters. I have learnt a lot from you. 🙏🙏
Most welcome. I am glad you like my work 🙌
This video was gold Shankar....absoluteky love the ckarity in which you present tge strategies at once making them accessible and executable. I have a question - what is considered the fairly valued PE ratio for midcap and smallcap, and what ratios for these would be considered good entry or exit points.
Thank you! Glad you liked it.
For midcap 150 index PE ratio: pls use -- www.screener.in/company/id/1275143/ (avg is 28)
For smallcap 250 index, pls use -- www.screener.in/company/id/1275142/ (avg is 29)
Hi Shankar, Loved your style of investing and thanks for sharing. I am in my 20's and fairly new to investing. Especially the way you have diversified your portfolio is quite good. It would be great if you could make a video about how young people can diversify their portfolio and what all options they can choose and how much weightage they can give.
Thanks for the suggestion. Two points --
1) What do you see in this video that won't be befitting for a person in their 20s? (I tried critiquing but figure that I'm just running the blade for the heck of it; this construct works across age groups .. ofcourse with minor tweaks and personalizations)
2) Unlike people in their 30s & early 40s who are likely to have responsibilities -- the 20s person can be a) very less responsibility (parents working, unmarried) or b) very high responsibility (parents not working, maybe married). I'm not sure how to generalize something like this when I'm not a fan of one-size-fits-all approach. If you have any suggestions for me that doesn't involve making video segments for multiple scenarios, pls do let me know. I'll probably again go back to the point that this construct works across age groups with personalizations :)
Great Video, Thanks for sharing. I have a question on portfolio construct suggestion of having a momentum, value and growth across 3 different sizes. How this fares up with another great video - Nifty 50 fund along with Momentum is sufficient when we have a choose only 2 funds. Many funds suggested is going to overlap each other? Wanted to know your thoughts
Most welcome!
1. I really don't look at overlaps because practically, it's unavoidable. I'd rather prefer to have the stocks that give me the best chance of making money rather than worrying so much about spreading it thin.
2. Now, its a matter of comfort. I am comfortable working with 7-8 primary funds divided around the styles and mcap sizes I referred to in this video. For others, it might not be that convenient. Pls do as you please.
3. Kindly watch my upcoming video on Index Fund performance. I'm certain many Nifty 50 loyalists will be a bit disappointed
I feel blessed to watch your video and the content you share with people. Your videos are goldmine. All we need is to adjust and apply learning in our investment journey.. Make mistakes and improve as you mentioned in long term journey. This ETF series is eye opener for me. Thanks for all the efforts you and your team puts to make these videos. Jay Hind!!
So nice of you. Thank you very much, I am glad you are finding my work informative and useful
Excellent Sir!! Keep such videos coming..
Thank you, I will
Always love it when you make a video on ETFs 😊
Glad you like them!
Namaste Shankar- Some of us in 40s, find in ‘sandwich generation’, everything collides- child education, parents getting older need financial support & own retirement coming up. Many competing obligations, life feel overwhelming. How to gracefully navigate challenges & build finances?
Pls share @shankar nath
Namaste to you too, Himanshu ji
I'm in my mid-40s myself. My response to financial & societal responsibilities was to give myself the best chance at improving it. For instance --
1. Family -- My parents live with me; we moved to a better society & I even convinced my sister & her family to take a place close by; I don't have children but have 2 nieces who are a handful
2. Job security -- I moved away from a corporate environment and built upon skills I had acquired (some) in my 20s and 30s. So technically I have a secured job now.
3. Health & lifestyle -- Because of self-employment, I'm able to work when I feel like, avoiding outside food, don't drive in traffic, take vacations when I feel like etc. I feel healthier although there is room to do better
4. Stress - This deserves a separate bucket. Haven't been under any stress for the last 2 years, I think life has become more minimalist for me which works well for me
5. Financials - Again, I believe one should give oneself the best chance of earning more. I didn't save/keep/invest enough in my 20s and 30s which is OK .. but in my 40s, I'm giving myself opportunities and building upside. For instance, RUclips has almost replaced my ET Money salary. I can double it by creating a Hindi channel (upside 1), I can grow the newsletter and monetize it (upside 2), can create smallcases that many viewers have been asking for (upside 3), am getting myself a small 1% stake in a fast growing business (upside 4). My point is -- wealth grows if one gives it the chance. How to do it, how to overcome one's fears is all upto every individual.
Hope this helps.
@@shankarnath yes, this is helpful! Truly simple, but impactful and inspirational work. Makes me think that (it’s high time now) I should do some course correction and take actions with a plan. Thanks a ton for giving an honest and detailed response. Regards
Most welcome. Wishing you the best!
@@HimanshuSharma-ec6hyyes
Very good video. This video covers the core principles of portfolio building. Kudos to the video editor, he has done a good job. Content was very well presented, crisp yet exhaustive 👏
Glad you liked it!
Insightful as always, for the grid value part I had shortlisted UTI 500 value 50 index fund which covers Large Mid and small cap.. I glad on the right path as I had created quite a similar portfolio.. Your channel influence probably 😊
Glad you are finding my work useful
#Question
Hi Shankar ,
To much confused about investing in index fund( lot of them are in the market) i am planning to do sip horizon is 30+ years which index fund would be good nifty 50 ,nifty next 50 ,nifty 500 ,nifty 750
Which will have better returns
I'll be covering this in next week's video (Saturday release). I've examined dozens of indices with trailing returns going back to 15 years. Where possible, I've looked at rolling returns and SIP returns aswell.
@@shankarnath That's great but you also mentiones that we shouldn't look at the past returns... when should we look for past returns and when should we not ! What are some advantage and disadvantages of them
@@Sri_Krish1555 May I know where I said that one should not look at past returns. Kindly share the video and the timestamp
Another fentastic video... Thank you sir.. 😍
So nice of you. Always welcome!
hello Shankar
what are your thoughts on
1. maintaining SIPs and investing leftover savings at the end of the month
2. having different debt funds for different short term goals (getting a bike/expensive phone etc)
Hi,
1. I'm a fan of SIP. Investing leftovers seems like a great strategy & should be rewarding over the long run
2. My suggestion is -- reduce dependence on debt funds for short term. Instead block that amount in a fixed deposit. Your maturity is fixed and safety is high that way.
@@shankarnath understood, thankyou for your inputs 🫡
me too, as Warren Buffet said, "Do Not Save What Is Left After Spending, Spend What Is Left After Saving."
all my SIPs/investments/savings are in the beginning of the month, a few days after the salary :)
@@karthik681 hey Karthik, I meant continuing with the SIP, and investing the extra savings left at the end of the month
Another Masterpiece Crafted by maverick Shankar Sir❤ Keep Posting These Gems Hatts off to your Research & insights Sir You are a life safer for retail Investors Like us 😊🙏🙏🤗
Thanks a ton 🙌
Loved this video Shankar ❤❤! ETFs are totally the instruments for future wealth creation. Be it long term or trading in ETFs , I have personally found them very useful. I just hope that there will be more sectoral ETFs especially covering Real estate/ Manufacturing/ Defence/ Oil and gas and most importantly we need actively managed ETFs as well as Nifty 50 reverse ETF... Financial product creation is simply too slow in our country..dunno why? These are already there in US ...
Thank you very much 🙌
superb Shankar da 👌 u made so simple the most critical topic
Thank you so much
As always awesome video sirji! 🎉 Lot of takeaways and loved the last pointer around the exit and entry based on returns using nifty 50 PE ratio over different time horizons .
Thanks a ton. I'm happy you found this informative 🙌
Really helpful video.. i have shared your link with my family members too. I had a question, is it possible to automate SIPs to ETFs. Thankyou.pls continue your good work.
Most welcome & thx for paying it forward. Yes, SIP automation is very common nowadays and most platforms offer it. Just try it on your trading platform & if you're facing an issue, write a note to the customer service team. Sometimes, designers hide it in the UI if there isnt much traction for this feature.
Wonderful video and great knowledge shared sir! I really loved this video!
Thank you very much!
Indeed Shankar your videos are knowledge book which we can use. I have started watching your videos with Pen and paper :)
Glad to hear that! Appreciate the support and encouragement
I just enjoy watching your videos so much, I have no connection to finance or accounting stuff, since I’m in stem but you make it seem so interesting that I’m feeling so inspired to learn about investing 😊
You are so welcome! 🙌
Hello sir, thanks for this detailed video on building a portfolio!! Can you please make a video ( or share some resources) on investing in Bonds directly vs Bond ETF discussing their liquidity, returns, and taxations, not able to find much information on this.
Glad you liked it. Thanks for the suggestion, there is a video I made on investing in government bonds during my ET Money days. Pls have a look at ruclips.net/video/BFjj2NkIf9o/видео.html
This was really very informative and interesting.. Though I have done some amount of asset allocation in the past your video has given me next level of thought to yrs k down and refine my portfolio.. thank you so much
Glad it was helpful! 🙌
Thank you for the insightful video. Given that the current PE ratio is around 23-25, do you suggest this is the right time to exit mutual funds and wait for the PE ratio to drop to around 18-19 before re-entering? Alternatively, if we are in SIP mode, should we continue with the SIPs and consider increasing them if the PE ratio drops to the 18-19 range?
I would appreciate your guidance on this matter.
I have a video on SIP & Lumpsums here: ruclips.net/video/1Br5EKbAQL0/видео.html .. personally, I am continuing with my SIPs
@@shankarnath Thanks , can you please suggest me any large, mid and small cap for the long term,
@@ramu222049 Sorry, I don't advice on specific schemes. That's the area of expertise of a financial advisor, may I request you to consult one in case of doubts.
This is a brilliant video. Thank you for the excellent overview on portfolio construction. As someone who is gradually shifting to ETFs, this was quite validating.
One question, though: Given that equity investing is a long term game, how long should you test one investing style before shifting to another (e.g., soft cushion vs debt:equity split)? Or should you experiment with pockets of your portfolio with different styles for x amount of time before settling on something? Curious to know your thoughts on this.
Most welcome! With re: your question, anything long-term will require tweaks, changes and improvements from time to time. This applies to one's career, lifestyle, business etc. -- we all do it differently but generally we test out scenarios, talk to others, read up more, continue multiple paths until we get comfortable with one etc. My point is -- there is no generic rule/playbook to this
Hello Shankar,
Thanks for very informative videos
Query: Do you still keep the value and momentum funds considering the market scenario
Most welcome. Yes, I still have momentum and value funds. I'm following a 50:50 approach with N200M30 and N500V50 (as I had explained in a previous video on 2 Funds for Lifetime) and I also have a momentum allocation in Nifty SmallCap 250 Momentum Quality 100. Momentum is a sort of permanent allocation for me
Amazing content, thanks for sharing such valuable information
My pleasure. I'm happy you found it helpful
@shankarnath: one of the issues I face with goals based investing is how can I keep track tag my investments with goals? Also, say I have 3 goals car, child education and home and I see that one fund in flexi cap is doing good and I would like to invest in it. So should I start 3 different sip in the same fund or have 3 different funds from 3 to different amcs?
It's better to work with a financial advisor for handholding. Personally, I follow a broad investing style wherein I am not precise with my calculations but very clear about the strategy. So in this case, if the strategy is clear that I have 5 goals, this is the target, this is where I am, this is the allocation needed -- then it isn't necessary to define particular schemes per goal. I follow this approach but other people might need a different pathway, that's why a financial planner is helpful to have
Thanks for the research. Really educative...
Most welcome! 🙌
Thanks Shankar for this video.
13:02. I have momentum. For growth I chose Passive Flexicap.
3 X 3 has value & momentum. In your TWO MFs for lifetime video, you told about Momentum and Value switch. It is still applicable correct?
Hello. I don't use the switch theory anymore as I found it a little complicated and it doesn't support my portfolio construct. You'll have to see this for yourself.
@@shankarnath Thanks for the reply.
Fantastic video. As usual, goldmine of information. Thanks Shankar.❤
Thank you very much 🙌
Sir, your videos are very unique and informative. Can you please share your thoughts on future themes and stocks will be the beneficiaries.
Thank you! I have a video on future themes, pls have a look: ruclips.net/video/o0xjYem2aJ0/видео.html
Hi ! great education for us . r u running a financial service & where r u located ?
Thanks. Sorry, I don't do 1:1 paid consultations currently
While assesing one's own portfolio, should one consider cost of the house that one is staying in and car that one owns ( it depreciates)?
Should one consider cost of gold jewellery ( not coins or glod bonds) as its generally not sold but may be passed on to next generation?
1. That's upto you, there is no generic rule to it. Personally I don't count it in my portfolio.
2. Again depends on you, I have not come across any generally accepted rule. I don't have gold jewellery so I won't know what to do
Very informative video for powerful portfolio building.
1. NPS investment (additional tax saving) also can be considered for long term/ retirement fund.
2. Gold ETF when ever gold dip also considered for low risk.
Additionally can considered good corporate bonds whenever equity market in high for low risk with stable return
Thanks for the suggestions
I have a qn- If our ultimate aim is to build a long term corpus Do we really need to exit when markets are high? I believe that will have a psychological impact, we may not become comfortable in keeping in our money in market ; portfolio churn or switching will be more frequent. Correct me if I am wrong.
"Markets are high" or "valuations are high" -- big difference! Can you clarify this?
I do partial exits when the valuations are high (markets are high is not that relevant) and add more when valuations are low. Valuations can be high even when the markets are low and likewise, valuations can be low even when the market is at all-time highs.
Thanks a lot for this type of knowledgeable videos
It's my pleasure. I'm glad you like my work! 🙌
Great video, Shankar! Please make a video on equity savings mutual funds. Thanks.
Thanks for the suggestion
What is your opinion on timing the ETF SIPs? Is blindly choosing some dates good or is it good to do manual SIPs when the price dips below a certain SMA? Say 9 day or 20 day?
Apologies, I haven't analysed a moving average based scenario. If you some data-backed insights, please share -- keen to understand more on this.
Thank you for bringing these videos to the uninitiated like me
Most welcome!
Your video is very very deep knowledgable and helpful
Love you
Thank you! I'm glad you like my work 🙌
Loved the video. How do you decide the percetage allocated to each grid block ?
Also, if you assign ETF to each grid block isnt it too diversified and can become like nifty500?
Shouldn't you take some and leave some for better portfolio returns?
Thank you!
1. Over time, I've found a comfort level. So for size, I use 50:25:25 between large, mid and small. For style, it's 70:15:15 between growth, value and momentum. This is for every investor to decide for oneself
2. That's the point, it's not Nifty 500 like because the ratio of large/mid/small is different there and styles are like all over the place. The problem with over-simplifying one's thought process is to negate everything. For instance, once one might look at Nifty 500, the mind might say "ye to Nifty 200 jaisa hi hai na? but with more companies". Then with Nifty 50, one might say "ye to Nifty 200 jaisa hi hai na, bas thode midcaps bhi hain". But if one looks carefully there are atleast 5 major differences between Nifty 50, Nifty 200 & Nifty 500. To put this together -- the idea here is to create a portfolio that has different sized-companies and styles of investing counteracting with each other. This balance offers stability to the portfolio and improves returns.
3. Sorry, I didn't understand the meaning of this take-it-or-leave-it line. Can you pls elaborate?
@@shankarnath Thanks for taking time to reply.
1. Understood your percentage allocation. I want to clarify, these percentages you got comfortable with over time on your gut feeling and there is no formula on deciding these exact percentages.
2. While I understand the fact that since the ratio of allocation in different caps and style is different and it will give returns on that basis. But I am uncertain on how to draw a boundary and where to a draw a boundary?
Why would one decide to invest in Nifty 50 (say 84%) AND Nifty Next 50 (16%) when the same person can invest directly in Nifty100 ?
Or on what parameters a person should decide to buy large,mid and small cap on his/her own OR buy Flexi cap directly ?
3. Shouldn't you take some and leave some for better portfolio returns? -> What I meant is why not take a little concentrated bets?
Like not investing in say Nifty Next 50 . So that when these particular companies dont work, you're unaffected. Shouldn't we get better returns when we put money on some assets and leave other assets untouched.
If we put money in all assets , wouldn't the whole portfolio get some average returns ?
@@nishujain9876 1. No formula, lots of experimentation & looking at data. Afterall, historical data is available over the last 18-19 years in the form of indices on niftyindices.com
2. Again, run the numbers and see for oneself. E.g. let's take the 2017 to 2021 period. How would a 100% smallcap fund have done versus 100% largecap fund versus 50%+50%. Which is more comfortable? The returns and risk are different
3. I take concentrated bets in stocks. That's what the satellite portfolio is for. The core portfolio is the diversified one that I keep untouched.
4. Difficult for me to answer on the multiple assets part. Different people might have differing views.
@@shankarnath Thank you for replying and taking your time to answer my queries.
Really appreciate them. My takeaways are that investing is completely personal , and one can / should run the numbers to find the comfortability in their method.
Everyone will have their opinions on asset allocation and how much diversification is required for them.
But goal is to invest something and stay invested. Find a method that works for yourself and one you're comfortable with.
How do you tackle the liquidity issue with ETFs? What if there are no buyers for the ETFs that you hold in the future?
Kindly watch the video on ETF for beginners for these insights: ruclips.net/video/t86OsSL7Opk/видео.html

Hi sir -- ur video was very informative. But sir i hv 2 doubts
1. In 03:28, u hd mentioned about the list of ETFs, if say i dont hv demat account and if i buy such ETF MF without demat, is it possible ? Such as FoF options
2. In 09:33, if i make such a grid for investing in ETFs, what should be the proportionate amount one should keep for investing in such grid like format ? Sir, u might hv thought well before putting it in video?
Right now i hd started an active large cap MF and willing to invest more in many easy MFs with less tension.
Hello. 1. Sure, you can do that aswell. It might be a bit expensive though but sure.
2. I can't advice for you but I use 50:25:25 for large, mid and small .. and 70:15:15 for growth, value and momentum

Thank you! I have too many funds (10 year old legacy, unable to prune it down) but the overall structure is exactly what you see in this video -- the 3x3 grid.

Requesting u to throw some light on the quant based investment theme
Thanks for the suggestion
Thank you Shankar for sharing your knowledge as SME. Requesting you to guide on how to invest 1 cr lumpsum at current market levels as the valuation are not comfortable. Thanks
Most welcome! If you aren't comfortable with current valuations, look at equity savings fund category. I explained this in a previous video (ruclips.net/video/6QKVRaNDvgc/видео.html); so you can explore having the money there at a low level of volatility (& still you wont be out of equity & receive equity taxation) and do an SWP into an equity scheme of your choice. This is what I'll do but since the amount is high, please feel free to consult a financial advisor

Please make a video on "How to value of a stock" or " How to judge valuation of a company"?
Thanks for the suggestion
@@shankarnath actually I have read lot of book , article, share market course, pdf , technical analysis, fundamental analysis. But one thing I missing is to judge valuation of a company. DCF method is not practical for retail investor. There is many assumptions. PEG ratio , evebita ratio, I can use. But some good future company like Zomato,,,good growth company is missing in screener, when I use this valuation metric. I want to know details about this topic, how you are valuaing company. Please consider my request if possible. Thank you
@@vivekanandasantra887 I never use one way of evaluating a company. Some places, I look at relative valuation, sometimes I use EV/EBITDA, in turnarounds I look at different metrics etc. etc. For a better idea on this, please watch my sector/industry analysis videos. On every sector (hospital, hotels, banks, life insurance, real estate, cement, sugar, specialty chemicals etc.), I have spent 18-20 mins each which I can never summarize in a single video. Pls watch them all and you'll have a much better idea on how to evaluate those companies.

How can I add to position in a stock for longterm holding, where stock's price has run up too high from my "buy price" (initially I was skeptical -- now upset) ?.. Should I SIP or wait for a bear market (simple correction won't be sufficient).. Please enlighten us.. Thx..
Whats done is done. An analysis need not have a baggage of a "cheaper buy price" to it. Your focus should be on reviewing the stock based on present information. For example - a company was at an EPS of 10 in 2018 and you bought it then at 200 rupees a share .. so a PE of 20 and let's say that's the average historical PE for such a stock. Let's say today in 2024, the EPS is 80 and the stock is available for 1000 rupees a share. Hopefully you won't reject the stock because the price is up 5 times from when you bought it. You are negating the fact that the EPS is up 8 times during the same period.
If you have some structure like this in place, then whenever you sense/see the opportunity you can swoop in with some lumpsum money and average up. You don't have to do an SIP per se as there will always be some or the other opportunity in the market
Thx Sir.. Now it's clear what to do.. Actually, whenever my entry price has been high, I've suffered since I'm mostly a buy & hold kind.. So kind of you, Sir..

best analysis thanq
Most welcome
Great content as always.
Much appreciated!
Taking que from momentum video, can we consider quant funds also under the category of Momentum funds.
@@Vinkalm I dont think so. Quant funds generally works on different factors while momentum is just the momentum factor.
Thanks shankarji, really appreciate

Hello Shankar, Thanks a ton for your wonderful work. It is helpful and insightful.
Every weekend, you are enhancing my way of thinking about finance and investment.
While I also did some research mostly to simplify where to invest part. I came to a conclusion that investing for long in a Multi Asset Fund with an inbuilt balancing and dynamic allocation can be a very good candidate. While this seem to be a portfolio for more conservative style, I found that tge returns of funds in this category are also very good. I found Quant MAAF very attractive in this aspect.
Add to this, a Momentum index fund, Alpha index fund a Multi cap flexi fund can be a very good mix. This, ofcourse is on top of safer instruments including SGB, EPF abd PPF that many people will have.
Im sure my research is not well rounded as I recently started understanding this but would like your opinion on this kind or an article or video. The target is simpler, efficient and auto rebalancing.
Thanks in advance!
Thank you for your kind words, I'm glad my work is helping you. Unfortunately I am not into personalized 1:1 advice at the moment. The RUclips channel is organized to educate in masses rather than advice in ones, very sorry about this!
@@shankarnath That is perfectly fine! You are anyway doing a lot of help to me as I'm one of those masses being benefited from your inspiring work.
@@viswanathaluri Thx for your understanding
Please elaborate on "reducing at accelerated pace" in your portfolio.
Hello, can you share the time stamp pls?
@@shankarnath : 10:29 here "reducing at accelerated pace" Satellite, core portfolio, safety cushion.
@@દિવ્યચાવડા Some mistake during editing. The "reducing at accelarated pace" applies to the safety cushion only. That's because the safety cushion is not a % but an absolute amount and as my portfolio grows, I am dedicating more money towards my core and satellite portfolio which means consequently the % of safety cushion keeps going down. This is the stage of my investment journey that I am currently
Great video sir, what one video you would recommend for overall investment planning?
Thank you so much !!!
Most welcome 🙌
