Best Equity Path: Save Time & Earn More
 
Some investors get attracted by the charm and the glamour of direct investing in the Equity Markets. Infact, when the markets are just going one sided - up, up & up, anyone who invests, earns profits. The creditable job is if you beat the performance of the Equity MFs on sustained basis on your overall portfolio. Usually investors feel proud of themselves as they always remember the 1 or 2 winners in their portfolio & they tend to ignore the few laggards (their mistakes). You may beat the performance of the Equity MFs for short periods and some of the scrips in your direct shares portfolio may outperform the Equity MFs. But on your OVERALL portfolio & that too for sustained period of 5-10 years considering even the bear phases, can you beat Equity MF performance?

Can you beat this...

Can you beat the Equity Fund Manager’s Performance? Is it practically possible?

The Chief Investment Officer (CIO) & the fund managers are assisted by the team of research guys and analysts who actually go to visit various companies to check their functioning, they talk to the CEOs & MDs & understand their future plans, they study the financials of 10 years or so, they meet the competitor companies to check the strength of the competitors & after such in-depth research & understanding they pick the shares of a particular company. This systematic and thorough study of few hundred companies is impossible for any individual investor. The fund manager’s study markets day in and day out whereas individual investor reads newspapers like ET, Business Standard & watches CNBC / NDTV as the source of their information to take decisions on buying stocks. A common investor forgets that he is the last person to get that tip (via newspaper or TV Channels) as the info starts from the company’s CEO, board of Directors, Accounts Dept., Mutual Funds, FIIs, Media & then comes to the retail investors. On any tip the top guys have already acted. Also if by reading newspapers one can make easy money - everyone who can afford Rs. 5 per day would have driven a BMW. Isn’t it?

So act smart, let the professionals manage your Equity portfolio. Sell your direct stocks totally (small as well as bluechips). The fund manager in an Equity Fund will decide better - which are the future winners and have it in your fund portfolio. If you are an aggressive investor invest in midcap funds, if you desire a portfolio of strongest companies go in for largecap / bluechip funds, if you want to leave it to the fund manager - opt for diversified funds.
