This week witnessed a display of absolute weakness across all sectors and major indices except for a few IT stocks. All major indices lost about 3% to 3.5%. Whether the corrections shall continue or will we see a much desired move on the upside, is hard to guess. We recently made a video discussing whether markets have gone up too far. You may watch the video for some insights (Link). WeekendInvesting portfolios also followed the markets. The consolidated performance is tabulated below.
A SHORT COURSE to Help you Stay Calm in All Market Conditions
Usually, quick – sharp corrections amidst a Bull Run creates ambiguity in the minds of lots of new investors. The most important questions we often get asked is whether markets will crash from here ? Should we exit ? and few other questions like these. We have made several videos to help you clarify many such questions and help you have the RIGHT MINDSET for a rewarding journey in investing.
The smallcase products are all LONG ONLY products that invest in various subsegments of the markets but have the momentum theme underlying in all of them. The strategies will pick strong outperforming stocks and remove weak ones once a week (except NNF10 which is monthly rebalanced)
These are all long term strategies that will create enormous wealth in each upswing and then maybe give some back in the downswing and repeating this process again and again achieving the compounding effect. With patience and grit to follow strategy over ups and downs over the last nearly five years it has been shown that much superior CAGR returns are possible than the benchmarks. FY21 was also phenomenal and I will let the numbers speak for themselves. You may read the Consolidated FY21 report and also go through Q1 FY 2022 & Q2 FY 2022.
Rebalance Update
We give an advance notice here on the upcoming changes in your smallcase for Monday . This advance notice can be used to ignore Monday update if there is no change. If there is a change indicated you can use the smallcase app or login to weekendinvesting.smallcase.com to see the rebalance. A back up email is sent by mid day Monday if you have not rebalanced by then and yet another one a day later.
Note : We are not including LIQUIDBEES as an ADD or an EXIT count.
