Equity investment is for a long term . Make an asset allocation . Stick to it . Do not change your asset allocation according to Sensex levels. Please rebalance your portfolio according to your allocation every year. Avoid sector funds and NFOs. Look at value research rated funds. Invest atleast 60% in large cap funds. Invest via SIP ONLY.
Here are my 5 funds - Please keep a watch on their ratings.

1) HDFC TOP 200

2) DSPML TOP 100

3) Sundaram Select Focus

4) Reliance Growth

5) DWS Investment Opportunity Fund...

Dear Mr.Venkat C,

If your Time Horizon is more than 2-3 years this is GOD GIFTED Opportunity to Invest in Selected ( not any) Equity Mutual Funds
( Large Cap Oriented ).

If you are already Invested in Above Average Performing Mutual Funds & incurred substantial Losses, you may wait for more than 1 year to Recover Losses. If you Redeem the Investments, you may not Recover the Losses.

If you are Invested in Below Average Performing Funds(Midcap/ Smallcap), Switch to Better Performing Large Cap Equity Funds.

Best Wishes,

P.C.Sharma...

Dear nandarohit, investment should be goal/aim specific not for the market level. 2days Toppers may bite dust very next day. So u should invest first for ur goals & invest in funds which r regular in their performance & r part of Top quartile (Top 25% funds).

the list of such Top performing fund is already posted by fellow boarders. Plz check the same that it matches to ur risk appetite & goals & invest as per ur comfort level.

Plz. don`t invest in a lump sum, if u do have a lump sum amount plz. invest it first in Liq. + fund & then use weekly STP route to invest in ur target Eq. funds.

Thanks

Speaking to CNBC-TV18 James Chirnside, CIO at Asia Pac Asset Mgmt says if one has an allocation plan of over 12 months then it is a good idea to stat putting little bit of money into markets now. I expect some form of global coordinated Central Bank cut in rates said Chirnside....

Integrated Rate cut by all major central banks across world cant be ruled out. But chances of rate cut by FED after giving almost $1600 bn for bailout & cash loan remain low. Australia has also cut rate by 1%. Also, china might see rate cut....

Stock market can be an ideal vehicle towards wealth creation, but the same can be really hazardous if you venture into its treacherous waters without any strategy in place.

07 Oct 2008 06:41

ELSS is a part of your 80C investment. Make an asset allocation according to your age and risk appetite. Younger person can invest more in equity. A minimum of say 25 to 30% of your 80C - should go towards ELSS - whatever be your age. PPF can play a major part for older persons. Insurance should be the least contributor towards 80C . Always invest only via SIP. Go for value research rated funds. At present Sundaram Tax saver & DWS Tax saving fund are good options. Stick to your asset allocation. Please do not change your asset allocation according to the sensex levels. Also rebalance your portfolio every year accordingly. ...

Can it get any WORSE - Global Meltdown !

Posted by : DUstocks


At this point it`s pretty foolish to rule anything out, including the possibility of a crash - if there is anything more left to it yet !

Possibly the only thing to be optimistic about is that it`s always darkest before the dawn and it`s ALREADY very dark right now. I can hardly see anything beyond !
