Assets Under Management of equity mutual funds surged 5.4% sequentially in July: PL Wealth Management

Investors continued to push significant money into sectoral, or thematic funds, with the category seeing inflows worth Rs 18,117.18 crores during August 2024. The inflows in this category remained largely flat last month, changing negligibly from Rs 18,386.35 crores in July 2024. During August, 5 new thematic mutual fund NFOs were launched, which raised a total of Rs 10,093.57 crore. <h2>42nd consecutive month of positive inflows</h2>This takes the total tally of existing sectoral fund schemes to 179. The next category with most schemes offered (42) is <keyword id="103549" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="ELSS" source="Orion">ELSS</keyword> (equity-linked savings scheme). Himanshu Srivastava, Associate Director – Manager Research, Morningstar Investment Research India cautioned that investors should be cautious while selecting funds specially from the sector/thematic category. Such funds offer a very high-risk high return investment proposition and may not fit in the portfolio of every investor. "Either investors should themselves understand the dynamics of the underlying sector or theme to take a prudent investment decision, or they should have a strong advice available to them, who can help them take the right decision", he advised. Inflows in small-cap funds tapered significantly, and are now largely in line with funds garnered by large-cap and mid-cap funds. In August, large-cap funds saw inflows worth Rs 2,636.86 crore, while large and mid cap funds amassed Rs 3,293.74 crore. Small-cap funds raked in Rs 3,209.33 crore during the month. "With large cap segment faring relatively better from valuation point of view, investors have shifted their attention towards this category again. Besides, large cap funds add stability to the portfolio during the times of market volatility, and this could be another reason for investors to invest in these funds, given heightened volatility observed in the markets in the recent times. Additionally, with the valuation high in the mid and small cap segments, some shift towards large caps is not surprising", continued Srivastava. Also, investors showed far more proclivity for <keyword id="6357979" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Mutual-Funds" source="Orion">mutual funds</keyword> spread over various market caps, as opposed to a single one. This is evident in the amount garnered by flexi-cap funds, which amassed Rs 3,513.16 crore. All in all, the equity segment saw total inflows of Rs 34,302.82 crores in August, making it the 42nd consecutive month of net inflows in this segment. Even the number of folios in equity jumped 3.16%, up from Rs 13.8 crore in July to Rs 14.3 crore in August. In hybrid funds, balanced advantage funds saw inflows worth Rs 3,215.06 crore, while multi-asset allocation funds received Rs 2,826.89 crore. <h2>Debt inflows take a dip</h2>As for debt categories, they saw inflows worth Rs 45,169.36 crore during the month, higher than their equity counterparts. However, this was significantly lower than the inflows it registered in July, which stood at Rs 1,19,587.60 crore. The biggest contributors to this quantum were <keyword id="428654" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="liquid-funds" source="Orion">liquid funds</keyword> and overnight funds, which received Rs 13,594.87 crore, and Rs 15,105.93 crore respectively. And despite various PSU stocks having a good run on the bourses, banking and PSU funds saw outflows worth Rs 1,549.99 crores, the highest in debt segment. Nehal Meshram, Senior Analyst, Research, Morningstar Investment Research India highlighted that overnight funds, liquid funds and money market funds accounted out 86% of the overall debt inflow last month. "This trend reflects a preference for low-risk and highly liquid investment options. Investors also showed a preference for categories with shorter maturity profiles, such as short term, corporate bond and ultra short duration funds, for temporary parking of funds. Medium duration funds, which had consistently seen outflows, reported marginal inflows in August for the first time in 15 months", she explained. During the month, about 63,93,602 new SIPs were registered.

When you try your best and don't succeed When you (don't) get what you want, but not what you need When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep Feeling these lyrics a little too much, since you could not ‘fix you’(self) tickets for <keyword id="20399945" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Coldplay" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Coldplay" meta.hostid="261" meta.entityid="Coldplay">Coldplay</keyword>'s 2025 concert in Mumbai? You were all set at 12 noon yesterday, ready to quickly snap up tickets that would not break your bank account, but also get you the best view of the stage, all at the same time. You had mentally mapped out how you'd make the most of 4 minutes that were allotted to everyone to buy tickets? But despite all the effort, you never moved ahead in the queue which had lakhs of Indians clamoring for tickets for the India leg of the iconic band’s “Music of the Spheres” world tour. This, after Coldplay announced a third show on 21st January, seeing their “phenomenal demand” in India. Mumbai based banking professional Agastya Shikhar came as close at 5,004 in the BookMyShow queue. One of his friends had inched even closer, at 604. And yet, they could not secure the tickets. As it is, the wound of not being able to secure tickets for <keyword id="20085213" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Diljit-Dosanjh" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Diljit Dosanjh" meta.hostid="261" meta.entityid="Diljit Dosanjh">Diljit Dosanjh</keyword>’s India leg of Dil-luminati tour was very fresh. And even though Diljit has announced a second show for Delhi-ites, along with adding pit stops in Jaipur and Mumbai, who knows whether you'll be able to lap up the tickets in just microseconds, before they are all sold out, yet again. But here's what you can certainly achieve, instead of lamenting over missing out on these concerts. Yes, they are once in a lifetime experiences, but you can create more for yourselves, all by smartly using the funds you saved from here in the stock market, and multiplying your funds, instead of just spending them away. Assuming you were going to buy two of the most expensive tickets of the lot in both the concerts, i.e. the lounge tickets in Coldplay’s worth Rs 35,000/per person, and fan pit tickets worth Rs 20,000/per person in Diljit’s. Following the US Fed’s rate cut last week, Indian markets are scaling all time highs, a trend which is set to continue for some time to come. As such, large-cap mutual funds are currently in the spotlight. And over a 1-year period, most large-cap mutual funds have delivered an average return of about 40%. So, if you invested Rs 70,000 in a large-cap mutual fund, you'd have amassed close to a lakh rupees (Rs 97,650) or even more by September next year. If you're a bit of a risk-taker, you can also invest in <keyword id="23278136" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="small-cap-index-funds" source="keywords">small-cap index funds</keyword>, which have delivered average returns of about 50% in the past 1 year. Your Re 70,000 could easily turn into Rs 1,05,000 in just 365 days, without you having to do anything! But remember to diversify your <keyword id="19895437" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="investment" source="keywords">investment</keyword> across small, mid and large caps, and not concentrate your money in a single fund. Mr. Anand K. Rathi, Co-Founder of MIRA Money highlights that two good options for a holding period of about three to six months are liquid funds and ultra-short bond funds. "Liquid funds have an average holding period of 20 to 30 days, making them suitable for short-term investments. They provide immediate liquidity, allowing redemption on the next working day. On the other hand, ultra-short bond funds have a slightly longer duration, matching the three to six-month holding period. They offer returns similar to annual fixed deposits, typically around 6.7 to 6.8%, making them a good option for short-term investments with better liquidity", he continues. See, there's always a risk of market changes adversely impacting your returns, don't let that deter you. Focus on your goal- of giving yourself and your partner a foreign trip to Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Uzbekistan, Vietnam and more, or anything that you want, all by smartly deploying the unused funds from here. SEBI-registered RIA Gaurav Goyal also advises investment in arbitrage funds for the time being as well. "Arbitrage Funds are equity-oriented hybrid funds that leverage arbitrage opportunities in the market. These can be a pricing mismatch between two exchanges, different pricing in the spot and futures market, etc. The fund manager of an arbitrage fund buys and sells the shares at the same time and earns the difference between the selling price and the buying price of the share", he says. And who knows, when you're sipping margaritas on the balmy beaches of Sri Lanka next year, you might not feel so bad about missing out on these concerts? Invest these funds as soon as possible, so that you can achieve your other short-term desires like traveling or anything else. Ofcourse, you can have Diljit and Coldplay playing in the background while you do that!

Could not buy concert tickets for Diljit Dosanjh or Coldplay? Here's what you can do with all the unspent funds

Kotak Flexicap Fund: Too big to be flexible?

June turned out to be a blockbuster month for thematic/sectoral <keyword id="19929240" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="mutual-funds" source="keywords">mutual funds</keyword>, which managed to amass Rs 22,351.69 crore during the month, the highest amongst all equity mutual funds. Overall, equity mutual funds saw <keyword id="19967545" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="inflows" source="keywords">inflows</keyword> worth Rs 40,537 crore, whereas debt mutual funds saw significant outflows of about Rs 1.07 lakh crore. Within this category, liquid and overnight funds saw maximum outflows. As Himanshu Srivastava, Associate Director – Manager Research, Morningstar Investment Research India noted, since June is a quarter end month, debt-oriented schemes, as expected, witnessed a net outflow. Only funds with a duration profile of less than 1 year, like low duration and money market funds, saw inflows. "The net outflow across the board could also be on the back of investors shifting towards equity markets in expectation of better returns, as the equity markets continue to touch all time high levels after the election results were announced. Between May and June, the number of folios in the debt segment fell from 7,091,977 to 7,013,214, which is a drop by 78,763 folios. In May, the number of folios fell by 26,088 folios". "Moreover, uncertainty over the interest rate cut cycle has also been keeping investors in tenterhooks. With no clarity on the probable timing for the beginning of interest rate cut cycle, investors, for a time being, would have decided to adopt a wait and watch approach and stay away from categories which are exposed to interest rate risks such as Dynamic and Gilt", he continued. <h2>SIP figures touch all-time highs</h2> As <keyword id="22344564" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="AMFI-data" source="keywords">AMFI data</keyword> further revealed, the number of new SIPs registered in June 2024 stood at a staggering 55,12,962. With this, the total number of SIP accounts in the country reached 8,98,66,962, inching up marginally from 8,75,89,485 in May 2024. SIP contributions also stood at an all-time high of ₹ 21,262.22 crores in June 2024 as against ₹ 20,904.37 crores in May 2024. The AUM of retail folios, which comprise of equity, hybrid and solution oriented was Rs 36,32,226 crores for June 2024. In <keyword id="22344565" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="hybrid-schemes" source="keywords">hybrid schemes</keyword>, multi-asset allocation funds garnered Rs 3,453.12 crore in June, and Arbitrage funds saw inflows worth Rs 3,836.58 crore. The only hybrid scheme to see net outflows were conservative hybrid funds, which shed Rs 130.57 crore. June marked the 40th consecutive month of positive inflows for <keyword id="20210668" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="equity-funds" source="keywords">equity funds</keyword> since March 2021. As Feroze Azeez, Deputy CEO, Anand Rathi Wealth Limited highlights, "SIP numbers are hitting peaks every month, accumulating a stellar ₹21,260 crore. This strengthens the fact that Indian investors are resilient and are participating in the long-term growth of the market. The overall market behaviour supported by numbers suggests that investors are strategically positioning themselves with cautious yet optimistic approach for long-term growth". Last month, the Indian MF industry hit the Rs 60 trillion mark for the first time. Exactly 10 years ago, in 2014, the industry's AUM stood at Rs 10 lakh crore. Just 6 months ago, its AUM was Rs 51 lakh crore. Anand Vardarajan, Chief Business Officer - Key Clients &amp; Alternate Investments, Tata Asset Management underlines that is growth is a huge validation when it comes to expanding retail investor's base and investors themselves choosing mutual funds as a reliable investment vehicle for wealth creation. This is further underscored by the fact that the addition in six months is equal to what the industry has seen in ten years ago! <h2>Large and Mid Cap funds find investors </h2>After garnering consistently high inflows in the recent past, small cap funds amassed Rs 2,263.47 crore, a slightly sobering figure. Midcap funds saw inflows worth Rs 2,527.84 crore. On the other hand, inflows in large-cap funds dipped at significantly to stand at Rs 970.49 crore. Far more investments went towards the large and mid-cap funds, which saw inflows worth Rs 2,912.19 crore. Melvyn Santarita, Analyst – Manager Research, Morningstar Investment Research India notes that these substantial net inflows can be attributed to the election results announced earlier in the month. Investors have remained optimistic and invested on policy continuity and anticipated reforms, expecting stability within the coalition government at the Centre. It was this optimism that propelled markets to new all-time highs. The multi-cap category witnessed the second highest net inflows in June 2024 among the equity-oriented categories amounting to INR 4,708.5 crores which was its 3rd highest net inflows ever over a monthly period. Categories which are biased towards the large-caps segment like flexicap (Rs 3,058 crores) and Value (Rs 2,027 crores) saw robust inflows during the month. "While markets have been in a prolonged bull run, there are concerns about overvaluations in certain areas, particularly in the mid and small-cap segments. Consequently, investors may be opting to invest in large-cap segments, where valuations are more favorable", Santarita highlighted. "However, they also continued their investments in mid and small caps, since the returns generated by mid and small cap segment over the last few years haven’t got unnoticed. Hence, the categories having substantial exposure in these two segments have witnessed strong net inflows. It is important to note that mid and small cap segments are highly volatile. While they can give exceptionally high return in up markets, they can fall equally hard in down markets. It’s important for investors to take exposure in these funds in line with their risk appetite", he cautioned. However, Hitesh Thakkar, Acting CEO, ITI Mutual Fund is confident of the immense wealth creation opportunities mutual funds will offer in the coming 5-7 years to retail investors. "Mutual fund is one of the preferred, transparent &amp; cost-effective investment products in India and is well accepted by retail investors. The trend is positive for Mutual fund industry future growth. There are chances that Industry will cross milestone of ₹100 lakh crores AUM by 2030”, he says. <h2><keyword id="19895579" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="gold" source="keywords">Gold</keyword> continues to glitter </h2>Net flows in Gold ETFs continued to be robust in June 2024, standing at Rs 726 crores. However, this was slightly below the net flows witnessed in May (Rs 827 crores). "Over the years, Gold has gained prominence as an effective diversifier, prompting many investors to include Gold ETFs in their portfolios. Gold prices also saw some slight correction in June which spurred buying from investors", underlines Santarita. However, the reason why inflows in gold ETFs have remained patchy as compared to equity is due to the significant gap in the returns offered. "Gold has done fairly well over the last year but dwarfs in comparison to how equities. Also, some investors could be choosing to opt for a risk-on approach to investing with the anticipation of a reversal in rate cycle going ahead", he continues.

The entire country celebrating Raksha Bandhan today. But are you one of those elder siblings still mulling and stuck over the perfect gift to give your younger ones? Well, then it is time for you to move beyond your traditional gift ideas like sweets, gadgets, clothes, and jewelry, and invest in their future prosperity. How? By gifting them <keyword id="19905382" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="stocks" source="keywords">stocks</keyword>, or even mutual fund units. Here's a deep dive into how you can lay the foundations of a lasting bond with your siblings, and cement their financial future, one stock and one mutual fund unit at a time. <h2>How can I gift shares ?</h2>You can swiftly transfer shares online, provided both you and your siblings have a <keyword id="19977340" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="demat" source="keywords">demat</keyword> account. Many brokerage firms like Zerodha, Groww and others also offer this facility. For this, you will need to input details like your sibling's name (who you wish should receive these shares), particulars of their demat account, the amount of shares you wish to give as gift, and the name and 12-digit ISIN number of the company whose stocks you want to transfer. In addition, you will also have to provide the beneficiary owner ID of your siblings, reason for transferring these shares, and bank account details. In order to kickstart the process, you'll have to initiate what is known as an off-market settlement. This means without the stock exchange coming into the picture, two parties i.e. you and your sibling will mutually settle shares. For this, you will have to submit a delivery instruction slip (DIS) to your DP, or depository participant, which serves as a bridge between you and the depository. When you are transferring shares, you are essentially transferring your ownership of such stocks to them, and thus, you need to inform your DP and depository of the same. At present, there are only 2 depositories present in the country, namely NSDL and CDSL. You can submit this DIS both online and offline. If you have more than one siblings you wish to transfer shares to, remember to use separate DIS for each recipient's account. Once you initiate the transfer, your broker will send an email and SMS to the recipient, who will have 7 days to accept this. But remember, once you've transferred these shares, there is no provision to revoke this transfer. And just like with your clothes, accessories and everything else in life, your siblings will have full freedom and ownership to do whatever they deem fit with these shares! However, what you can certainly do, and make this gift more meaningful, is drive home the value of holding these securities for the long term, so that they are able to make the most of this investments. Ideally, a good start would be to start investing in stocks of large-cap, blue-chip companies, and them eventually complement them with small and midcap stocks, which offer higher legroom for growth. Per brokerage firm Master Capital Services Ltd, "consider choosing stocks from well-established companies with a solid track record and growth potential. It is essential to consider risk tolerance, investment horizon, and financial goals before selecting stocks for your brothers and sisters. The finest present you could give your siblings this year would be long-lasting financial stability". If you're looking for some stock recommendations you can consider for your siblings, we have you covered as well: <h4>Larsen &amp; Toubro Ltd. </h4>Why you should consider this? The company has shown consistent revenue growth and profitability in the past years while maintaining stability with its ROCE &amp; ROE of around 19% and 15%. L&amp;T has a significant global presence, with projects and operations in various international markets. This geographic diversification helps in tapping into global opportunities and reduces dependence on the domestic market. <h4>HCL Technologies Ltd. </h4>Why you should consider this? HCL Technologies is one of the IT giants of India, which is ranked amongst the top five Indian IT services companies in terms of revenues. HCL offers a wide array of IT, business services, engineering, R&amp;D services, and software products with operations in 60 countries. The company has been investing heavily in digital technologies, including cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), and automation. This focus aligns with current industry trends and positions the company to capture growth in the high-demand areas. <h4>TATA Motors Ltd.</h4>Tata Motors Limited is a leading manufacturer of automobiles and one of the largest OEM in India offering a wide range of passenger and commercial vehicles. Tata motors owns the flagship brand of Jaguar and Land Rover (JLR) which is a dominant automobile player in the global market. Its early entry in the electric vehicle segment has positioned it well ahead of many competitors and currently, it enjoys the largest market share in the EV segment in India. The focus on innovation and sustainability, along with a robust product lineup, positions Tata Motors well for future growth and market opportunities. <h2 style="margin-bottom: 0.7em; line-height: 1.3; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 24px; background: 0px 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility;">Tax Implications of gifting shares</h2>The best part about gifting shares is that it is tax-exempt, since you're giving it to your relative. This means your sibling will not be liable to pay any taxes on this gift. However, to be on the safer side, make sure that the market value of the shares that you gift them does not exceed Rs 50,000, or else your siblings, i.e. the recipient will have to incur a tax liability. If your siblings decide to sell these gifted shares, they will have to pay LTCG (long-term capital gains) tax at the rate of 12.5%, or STCG (short-term capital gains) tax at the rate of 20%, depending on how long they hold these securities for. <h2>Gifting mutual fund units? </h2>Unfortunately, you cant transfer your mutual fund units to your siblings. The transfer of mutual fund units is only possible in case the unitholder passes away. But the one thing you can certainly do is start an SIP, or systematic investment plan (SIP) in their name.

The robust gain in the asset base was also replicated in the growth of investors in equity mutual funds, with the number of folios closing at 13.3 crore, adding an investor base of over 3 crore. The significant gain in equity folios indicates broader participation across investor segments, driven by improved <keyword id="19929245" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="financial-literacy" source="keywords">financial literacy</keyword> and accessible investment platforms, Trivesh D, COO of stock trading platform Tradejini, told PTI. According to the AMFI data, equity-oriented mutual fund schemes invested Rs 94,151 crore in the quarter ended June 2024. This comprises Rs 18,917 crore in April, Rs 34,697 crore in May and Rs 40,537 crore in June. The investment in equity-oriented mutual funds jumped five-fold to Rs 94,151 crore in the June quarter from Rs 18,358 crore in the quarter ended June 2023 and increased 32 per cent Rs 71,280 crore witnessed in the preceding March 2024 quarter. "The confluence of political stability, supportive government policies, and a favourable economic environment has significantly contributed to the impressive inflows into equity mutual funds, signalling a positive outlook for the sector," Trivesh said. Strong macroeconomic fundamentals, bolstered by supportive government fiscal policies like higher-than-budgeted tax collection growth, reduced revenue expenditures, and increased capital spending have helped in increasing the allocation to equity mutual funds, Feroze Azeez, Deputy CEO, Anand Rathi Wealth, told PTI. He further said that investors' confidence in the markets and historically strong returns given by Indian equities with relatively low risk also helped investors to move towards equity mutual funds. Additionally, the shift was further fuelled by a transition from traditional investments like deposits to mutual funds in pursuit of higher returns. "The long-term outlook remains positive, with expectations of 11-13 per cent annual returns for Indian equities, and equity mutual funds potentially delivering even higher returns," Azeez said. Within the equity segment, sectoral or thematic category attracted Rs 46,731 crore during the quarter under review, followed by Multi-cap (Rs 10,077 crore), Flexicap (Rs 8,387 crore), Large &amp; Midcaps (Rs 7,948 crore), Smallcap (Rs 7,197 crore) and Midcap (Rs 6,927 crore). Large-cap funds witnessed an infusion of Rs 1,991 crore during the April-June quarter of the current financial year (FY25). Moreover, inflows into the systematic investment plan (<keyword id="19956399" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="SIP" source="keywords">SIP</keyword>) have been rising continuously for the past several months. The monthly SIP contributions crossed the Rs 21,000 crore mark in June, with the total inflow reaching an all-time high of Rs 21,262 crore. This shows investors' commitment to disciplined and long-term investing. The fund infusion through the SIP route was Rs 62,537 crore in the April-June quarter of FY25, a remarkable surge from Rs 43,211 crore in the same quarter preceding the fiscal.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>David Tepper is growing even more bullish on Chinese stocks amid the nation's new fiscal stimulus measures.</li><li>The new measures include interest-rate cuts, liquidity support, and encouraging company stock buybacks.</li></ul>It's a buy "everything" moment for Chinese stocks after the country <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/china-economy-stock-market-bazooka-liquidity-stimulus-sparks-panic-speculation-2024-9">launched a fiscal stimulus bazooka this week</a>, according to billionaire investor David Tepper.In an interview with CNBC on Thursday, Tepper outlined his bull case for China's stock market, which has been practically left for dead in recent months as it trades at the same level it did in 2007."I thought that what the Fed did last week would lead to China easing, and I didn't know that they were going to bring out the big guns like they did," Tepper said, referring to the Federal Reserve's <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/fed-cuts-interest-rates-how-much-september-fomc-powell-inflation-2024-9">jumbo 50-basis point interest rate cut last week.</a>That big cut is giving China's central bank some breathing room in implementing its own fiscal and monetary stimulus policies, according to Tepper.In recent days, China has cut key interest rates, announced liquidity support for its stock market, lowered bank reserve requirements, and even encouraged company stock buybacks."Encouraging buybacks of stocks. Ok, this is China. This is stock buybacks. Not only encouraging it, lending you money to do it," Tepper said.He added: "I took it that they did a lot, they exceeded expectations, and he promised to do more and more and more, and that's very strange language, especially for any central banker, but especially over there," referring to <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/china-economy-aggressive-monetary-stimulus-interest-rate-rrr-2024-9">recent dovish comments</a> from People's Bank of China governor Pan Gongsheng.Chinese stocks have responded to the stimulus measures with big moves higher. On Thursday, shares of large-cap China tech stocks like <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/stocks/baba-stock">Alibaba</a>, <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/stocks/pdd-stock">PDD Holdings</a>, and <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/stocks/tctzf-stock">Tencent Holdings</a> surged more than 7%.Even the broader <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/etfs/ishares-msci-china-etf-us46429b6719?miRedirects=1">iShares MSCI China ETF</a> soared 8% on THursday and is up more than 16% this week alone.But Tepper believes Chinese stocks have plenty of room to run higher, even after the recent surges."Even with the recent moves they're like on a flat-line low compared to where they have been in the past. And you're sitting there with single multiple PEs, with double-digit growth rates for the big stocks that trade over here," Tepper said.As to whether steep tariffs from a potential Donald Trump Presidency would shake his bullish view on China, Tepper said it probably wouldn't matter because of the "internal stimulus" measures."Obviously this is incredibly good for very undervalued Chinese equities, especially when the government is encouraging buybacks," Tepper said.On US markets, Tepper said he is not following his buy "everything" mantra with Chinese stocks and is being more selective in buying US stocks.Tepper, who runs the $6 billion hedge fund Appaloosa Management, highlighted US casinos that have exposure to China, like <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/stocks/wynn-stock">Wynn Resorts</a> and <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/stocks/lvs-stock">Las Vegas Sands</a>, as well as companies that are exposed to the power demand of the AI tech trade as potential buys."I don't love the US markets on a value standpoint, but I sure as heck won't be short, because I'd be nervous as heck of the setup with easing money everywhere, a relatively good economy, and China just doing massive stimulus coming in, so it would make me nervous not to be somewhat long the US," Tepper said.He added: "You can't be short the US."Tepper's biggest position as of June 30 was Alibaba, which made up 12% of his portfolio. He hinted that he's buying more of the stock."I have limits. I probably said a long time ago I don't go above 10% or 15%, well that's probably not true anymore," Tepper said.Tepper also owns shares of PDD Holdings, Baidu, the KraneShares China Internet ETF, and JD.com.As to how Tepper is hedging his bullish China trade, as some might expect a hedge fund to do, he's not."My counter bet is that I don't care," Tepper said.

The <keyword id="20412710" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="ICC-T20-World-Cup" source="keywords">ICC T20 world cup</keyword> has all of us hooked undoubtedly. From low-scoring thrillers to surprise upsets to high-scoring, high-voltage chases that have gone down to the wire, the ongoing world cup has had us on the edge of our seats! Post the high octane, much anticipated <keyword id="63471" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="India-vs-Australia" source="Orion">India vs Australia</keyword> clash that took place yesterday, where India silenced the kangaroos, India is set to meet England in the semi-final clash tomorrow. As for the resilient Afghans, who first defeated Australia and then Bangladesh, the next stop is against the Proteas, who have been unbeaten in this tournament so far! But before these epic clashes, take a good, long, hard look at your financial fitness. And if you are unable to win at managing your finances in life, here are some insights you can take from these matches! <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Never write off the underdog" comment="subhead" text="Never write off the underdog">Never write off the underdog </cmsannotation>Remember how USA, an associate nation and <keyword id="19919646" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="cricket" source="keywords">cricket</keyword>ing minnow, managed to thrash Pakistan by first taking their match to a super over, and then beating them by 5 runs? USA stunned cricket fans all over the world, while promptly announcing itself on the global cricket scene! Shortly after, Afghanistan won over Australia, a certified cricketing giant, by 21 runs. As unexpected as it was, it tells us to never completely write off the underdog, in cricket and in markets. Consider this. The BSE smallcap index has jumped up by 61.79% over the past year. In contrast, the BSE largecap index has only risen by 31.78% in this time. While large caps like Australia certainly offer stability, it is in these smallcaps like Afghanistan where immense growth potential lies. Which is why there is immense merit in allocating some portion of your portfolio to <keyword id="425061" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="small-cap-stocks" source="Orion">small-cap stocks</keyword>. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Have an emergency fund" comment="subhead" text="Have an emergency fund">Have an <keyword id="20747810" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="emergency-fund" source="keywords">emergency fund</keyword></cmsannotation> Stunned by both Afghanistan and India, in the end, Australia had to hope that Bangladesh wins over Afghanistan in more than 12.1 overs, so that they could make it through to the Super 8. Similarly, earlier on, Pakistan had to rely on India thrashing USA by a big margin,and then on USA to lose their last league match, so that they could qualify ahead. The lesson? Have an emergency fund handy, so that you don’t have to rely on others to battle any emergencies. Relying simply on friends and family to tide you through financially difficult times can come back to bite you! Experts suggest that your emergency fund should have at least 3-6 months of your essential expenses. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Markets don't stay the same" comment="subhead" text="Markets don't stay the same">Markets don't stay the same </cmsannotation>Die-hard cricket fans would know of Indian skipper Rohit Sharma’s struggles against left arm pacers. Before India’s match with Australia, Rohit had been dismissed by 3 of them in this tournament-Shaheen Shah, Saurabh Netravalkar and Fazal Haq Farooqi. So naturally, fans were concerned about how Sharma would battle Mitchell Starc, Australia’s most dangerous left-arm spinner, who was coming off a splendid performance in IPL 2024 as well. But Rohit Sharma’s swashbuckling 92 off 41 runs turned the tables. Infact, Starc’s over against Sharma went for 29 runs, the most expensive Starc had ever bowled in T20Is. So, if you think you can time the market, you’re mistaken. Investing in stock markets is not a matter of timing them, but staying invested over-time. The best time to conquer your demons, and to start investing is right now! <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Diversify" comment="subhead" text="Diversify">Diversify </cmsannotation>India’s star batter Virat Kohli has been going through a lull, when it comes to runs. Dismissed for ducks against USA and Australia, his highest individual score is 37 off 28 balls against Bangladesh. And yet, India has continued its unbeaten streak throughout the world cup. That's because other players like Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya stepped up. The idea is to diversify, and not put all your eggs in one basket. Have more than one asset class in your portfolio apart from equity, like debt, gold and others, so that you are able to hedge your risks. If one asset dips, you have the cushion of others to safeguard you from losses. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="You don't need a lot to start" comment="subhead" text="You don't need a lot to start">You don't need a lot to start </cmsannotation>This world cup has largely been about Afghanistan’s dream run, and how they managed to qualify for semifinals for the first time ever. This, despite not having a proper home ground, or any cricketing facilities in their country. Afghani players are a prime example of how discipline and consistent effort is all one needs to win. So, stop waiting for when you’ll start earning more to start saving and investing. Begin with that Rs 500 SIP right away, and increase it as you go. Starting off and staying at it is more important than waiting for the right time!

Five financial lessons to take away from the ICC T20 World Cup

<ul><li>Flexi cap funds can invest across different market capitalisations such as large, mid and small caps. </li><li>Their appeal lies in the hands-on management provided by a professional, alleviating the need for investors to engage in extensive deliberation. </li><li>Investors are advised a long term horizon, at least five years or more, while investing in flexi cap funds. </li></ul>As of November 30, 2023, the assets under management in the flexi-cap category totaled ₹3.06 lakh crore, making it the largest asset base within the equity category, according to Association of <keyword id="6357979" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="mutual-funds" source="Orion">Mutual Funds</keyword> in India (AMFI) data. Market regulator, SEBI had introduced new guidelines for multi-cap funds on September 11, 2020. The main essence of these proposed changes to the multi-cap category was that, starting from January 31, 2021, these funds would be required to allocate a minimum of 25% of their portfolio to large-cap, mid-cap, and small-cap stocks each. After the announcement of the new guidelines regarding multi-cap funds, there were numerous discussions about the potential drawbacks for both investors and the markets. Recognising these concerns, SEBI appeared to acknowledge the issues and subsequently introduced a new category - flexi cap funds in November 2020. Flexi cap funds can invest across different market capitalisations such as large, mid and small caps. The benefit of this strategy is that these funds can tweak the allocation across market cap as per the evolving opportunities. For instance, if the fund manager foresees an impending economic downturn, he or she can tweak the portfolio towards large caps which can give relative stability and protect the downside to some extent. Similarly, having exposure to mid and small cap companies when there is a turnaround helps generate some extra alpha. This flexibility allows fund managers to adjust their portfolio allocations dynamically, taking advantage of changing market dynamics and identifying potential investment opportunities across different segments of the market. “It provides them with the freedom to invest in large-cap stocks when they see valuation comfort in that segment, and similarly, in mid-cap or small-cap stocks when they expect that market cap to do well,” says Amey Sathe, Fund Manager, Tata Mutual Fund. Why the <keyword id="10261513" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="flexicap" source="Orion">flexicap</keyword> fund category is so big The popularity of flexi cap funds stems from their inherent flexibility, sparing investors the need to navigate the complexities of choosing between mid-cap, small-cap, or large-cap investments. “By opting for a flexicap fund, investors can simply allocate their funds to this class, entrusting the fund manager with the responsibility of strategic allocation based on market conditions,” says Soumya Sarkar, Co-Founder, Wealth Redefine, a mutual fund distribution firm. The appeal lies in the hands-on management provided by a professional, alleviating the need for investors to engage in extensive deliberation over whether to focus on large-cap, mid-cap, or small-cap investments – a key reason why flexi cap funds are favoured by investors. Most of the fund managers have been managing this category conservatively with a tilt towards large cap and use mid and small cap portions as a tool to alpha generation. “Given the current scenario where large-cap has not run up much and small-cap has given a tremendous run, investors are allocating into the funds that are heavy on large-cap but at the same time give some flavour of mid and small-cap stocks which is talk of the town,” says Mukesh kochar National Head of Wealth at AUM Capital, a wealth management firm. <keyword id="6374680" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="returns" source="Orion">Returns</keyword> In the last one year, flexi cap funds as a category have given returns of 28.29% according to Valueresearch, while the three-year return has been 19.65%. Flexicap funds are benchmarked against the Nifty 500 Total Return Index (TRI) which has returned 22.51% in the last year. “We expect the category to gain prominence in 2024 considering valuation in various market caps is at crossroads and there is no compulsion to invest in categories wherein valuations are expensive,” says Sathe. <keyword id="17715484" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="should-you-invest" source="Orion">Should you invest</keyword>? Choosing to invest in a flexi-cap fund demands careful thought owing to its high risk nature. Unlike more conservative alternatives like balanced advantage funds, hybrid funds, or large-cap funds, flexi-cap funds carry increased risk by distributing funds across mid-cap and small-cap categories. This renders them inappropriate for risk-averse investors but appealing to those comfortable with higher levels of risk. Investors must recognize that their money, regardless of the amount, will be invested in mid-cap and small-cap categories, requiring a sufficient risk appetite and <keyword id="6133603" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="time-horizon" source="Orion">time horizon</keyword>. “If investors lack these attributes, it may be advisable to avoid flexi-cap funds; however, for those willing to embrace some risk without extensive analysis, flexi-cap funds present a viable investment option,” says Sarkar. Investors should thus have a long term horizon, at least five years or more, while investing in flexi cap funds. Investors should spread their allocation across funds with different styles (growth and value) for diversification. Kochar advises that for the first-time investor, it is advisable to go through the balance advantage fund route as these are more stable and less volatile compared to a flexicap fund which is 100% equity-oriented. These funds are relatively less risky as compared to sector or thematic funds. However, they are not completely immune to volatility. Thus, investors should be prepared to withstand some volatility and have a long term horizon while investing in this category of funds.

Flexicap funds explained: Do they provide the play your mutual funds portfolio needs?

<ul><li>When building a MF <keyword id="27676" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="portfolio" source="Orion">portfolio</keyword>, defining clear goals is essential. </li><li>An investor needs to keep in mind what kind of risk taking ability he/she has. </li><li>An investor should know his/her investment horizon and see if it aligns with that of the fund. </li></ul>More and more Indian investors are believing in the slogan often heard during the ongoing ICC World Cup 2023 telecast – ‘<keyword id="6357979" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="mutual-funds" source="Orion">Mutual Funds</keyword> Sahi Hain’. According to data by Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) in October, ₹16,928 crore (approx $2 billion) flowed into SIP accounts, adding up to a total inflow of ₹1.75 lakh crore over the preceding twelve months. In October 2022, it stood at ₹13,040 crore. With over 44 registered mutual fund houses in India and a wide variety of fund categories, it is not easy to construct a mutual funds portfolio that is suitable for one’s needs. Here we take a look at some key factors that will help you build a mutual funds portfolio and select the categories of funds to invest in. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Constructing a portfolio" comment="Subhead" text="Constructing a portfolio">Constructing a portfolio</cmsannotation> When designing and then constructing one’s mutual fund portfolio, there are three crucial factors to consider. “First, age plays a significant role in determining the investment strategy. Second, defining clear financial goals is essential – whether it's retirement planning or funding your child's education, specifying when these goals should be met is key. Lastly, one must assess their risk tolerance,” says Soumya Sarkar, Co-Founder, Wealth Redefine, a mutual funds distribution firm. For example, when you are in your 30s or 40s, there is still a long time to go for retirement, so you can have a greater portion of your portfolio invested in equity funds, but when you are near to a goal like child’s education or retirement, you should make a shift to debt because capital preservation becomes important. “While age and goals are important, the emphasis should largely lean towards risk tolerance, accounting for around 60% of the decision-making process. Understanding how comfortable one is with potential fluctuations in the market is paramount, as it guides the selection of mutual funds that align with their risk profile,” says Sarkar. The remaining 40% should factor in age and goal timelines to craft a well-balanced mutual fund portfolio that suits individual financial aspirations and risk appetite. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Deciding on the type of mutual fund to invest in" comment="Subhead" text="Deciding on the type of mutual fund to invest in">Deciding on the type of mutual fund to invest in</cmsannotation> It all starts with asset allocation and depends on the individual, his preference and his requirements. Shaily Gang, Head-Products, Tata Mutual Fund, explains. Let us say someone decides 70:30 in equity and debt. Within that 70% if someone is very aggressive and has the horizon and has the capacity to take volatility then one can go very aggressive on thematic, sector and small cap funds, which could total to 35% of that 70%. The rest of the 65% of the 70% of equity allocation will be formed by diversified funds. Someone else with a high risk appetite may decide to invest 50% of his equity exposure into <keyword id="509662" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="large-cap-funds" source="Orion">large cap funds</keyword> and another 50% in small cap funds. However, it is advised that if a person has a horizon of three to five years, <keyword id="882925" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="hybrid-funds" source="Orion">hybrid funds</keyword> like equity savings funds and balanced advantage funds, are a good option because they carry less risk than pure equity funds. “So an investor needs to keep in mind what kind of risk taking ability he has, his horizon for that part of the investment and also map that to the horizon of the fund. For example, if someone has a high risk taking capacity and the investor has a horizon of beyond five years, then he can invest in a small cap fund,” says Gang. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Making the most of market trends?" comment="Subhead" text="Making the most of market trends?">Making the most of market trends?</cmsannotation> Predicting specific market periods is challenging, as rallies can be unpredictable. “Investors can use various parameters to make informed decisions, such as the price-to-earnings ratio, price-to-book value, standard deviation, and rolling returns in mutual funds,” says Sarkar. Rolling returns indicate how fund managers have performed over different time frames, providing insights into potential future performance. While not always foolproof, these metrics are often reliable. Should a sector remain undervalued over an extended duration, there exists a probability that it will eventually exhibit strong performance, irrespective of whether it falls into the large-cap, mid-cap, or small-cap category. This positive performance has the potential to yield favourable returns for investors. “Currently small cap valuations are attractive. Let’s say that when markets are heated small caps trade at 40-50% of the large caps but currently they are trading at 5% premium. So they are very reasonably valued. One would need to visit all of these things before making a decision,” says Gang. To sum up, although accurately timing market periods is challenging, slightly evolved investors can utilise these metrics to make informed decisions and potentially capitalise on rallies specific to particular sectors.
