The Mutual Funds Investment Thread

[Desmond]

AFAIK, if the fund you are investing in has a good track record, then it will eventually recover or sometimes even be unaffected by a bearish market.

Iran's attack and growing tension over Russia's more aggressive stance against Ukraine already shook the market. Then the tensions increasing between China and Taiwan is another thing which is bothering me, especially because it will involve US directly. Doesn't seem like things will be stable like last decade. What are your opinions on these kinds of situations simmering up, which affect stock price negatively.

I was investing this way last few months, like mid of the month, end of the month to buy dip but now I don't have extra money to invest, seeing everything losing value, I was wondering if i should wait for a turn of events to do even SIPs to avoid losing further value of the money I am investing.

If you want to time the market, place order before 2PM on days when market is falling, like one of those days it falls more than -1%

That is why best strategy is to only invest one extra SIP in a month, if a dip occurs. But never stop your existing main SIPs cause how else you will take advantage of rupee cost averaging?
