The 18 month carnage

*The Red Sea*....not inbetween Asia and Africa but in the Indian Equity markets

The impact of it seen in 3, 5 and 10 yr returns as well

Is this going to stay this way, bleeding at a slow pace and forever 😔

So.... SIP s did well 👇

The regular portfolio I keep talking about which I run for myself since Jan 2016... that's about 3 years and 7 months - *CAGR of 1.94%*

12 schemes with

1 equity hybrid,
3 multicaps,
1 focused fund,
2 mid caps, 
1 value fund,
1 small cap
2 large caps &
1 thematic

All the schemes have been purchased at random periods (when the market went down by some %) and via SIPs....

Am I stopping now?
NO

Do I continue to keep buying?
YES

Will this carnage continue?
I DON'T KNOW

Will this carnage continue forever?
DEFINITELY NOT

Can I hold onto my investments without a liquidity / cash flow worry?
YES

Does it hurt that the Hyderabad real estate market gave a phenomenal return in the last couple of years and I've not out a penny into it?
NO

Am I clear about the *Purpose and Why* I am investing?
YES

😊
