Just Follow This Investing Tip for Guaranteed Super Profits

When investing, many people often think, ‘Which stock should I buy?


Which plan will be profitable now?’. You may think that the right idea or a good plan will be the reason for success in the long run. But, the first reason is the discipline that is followed continuously beyond all of them. 

In this article, we will take a detailed look at how to choose asset classes correctly and how to build an investment in a systematic way.

Asset classes refer to different asset classes in which investments are made. Each type is unique. It has different types of risks and income opportunities.

If we look at the important asset classes that we choose for investment, we can mention equity investments, debt investments, gold / silver, real estate, etc.


Why is asset class selection important?

Investing in only one asset class is always risky. Market changes can affect it at any time. Therefore, investing in various asset classes increases security.

Having various asset classes in an investment portfolio reduces risk; provides stable income; helps to cope with market fluctuations; and helps in long-term wealth growth.

Many people think that buying stocks and investing in funds at the right time is important. They think that choosing the best plan is important. But this is not the only complete thing.

Most investors tend to try to predict the stock market, have a habit of buying/selling frequently, and make decisions based on emotions. This is not the right approach. However, disciplined investment will help in generating profits in investment.

Choosing the right asset classes is the first step before disciplined investment. Let's see how to choose asset classes.


Clarify your financial goal!

Before investing, you need to understand 'Why am I investing?' For example, starting an investment based on your personal goals such as retirement expenses, children's higher education, buying your own home, buying a car, or traveling abroad will help you follow a disciplined approach to investing.

Set a time frame!

It can be divided into short-term (0 to 3 years), medium-term (3 to 5 years), and long-term (more than 5 years). This is important for choosing asset classes for investment.

Assess your risk tolerance!

Some people get nervous and exit their investments when the market drops a little. It is important to consider whether you have the mindset to handle stock market volatility before making a decision.

Do Asset Allocation!

Asset allocation is the process of dividing your investment into different categories. You need to decide how much to invest in which asset class based on your goals and risk-taking ability. (See table for details).


How to build an investment discipline?

An investment discipline does not develop in a day. It has to become a habit. Investment discipline will become natural if you start following the following things.

Invest consistently: Investing on the same day every month is a good habit. The SIP system in mutual funds was created for this.

Do not follow the stock market: Whether the stock market rises or falls, do not make decisions emotionally or nervously.

Rebalance once a year: If the asset allocation changes, it should be adjusted again. This should be done at least once a year.

Avoid desire and fear: Fear and greed are the enemies of investment. These must be controlled. That is, when the market is rising, Do not invest. Similarly, when the market is down, do not sell shares or equity fund units out of fear.


Discipline.... Positive, negative!

If you follow discipline in investing, you will have stable growth, additional benefits with less risk, peace of mind, and a greater chance of achieving your financial goals.

If you are not disciplined in investing, you will have a greater chance of losing money. Unplanned decisions will affect your long-term financial goals. Stress will increase.

Let's look at a simple example. If someone invests Rs. 5,000 per month in an equity fund for 25 years through SIP, he will accumulate a large amount despite market fluctuations. 

Let's assume that this investment earns an average of 13% per year. A total of Rs. 15 lakhs will have been invested. But, a total of Rs. 1.12 crores will have accumulated in the fund. This is called the power of compounding.

However, another person chooses the right asset classes and invests at the right time in the market.

But, another person chose the right asset classes and waited for the right time in the market. He could not achieve his investment goal.

Choosing asset classes is important. But more important is the discipline that you follow. 

The stock market is always changing. That is its nature. But discipline should not be changed in investing.

‘It is not the best investment plan, but the investment plan that is followed consistently that brings success’ is an important truth in investing!

Maximize Your Profits: What Should the Return on Investment.? Financial Management -7

Image
  Generally, the investment we make should be able to provide returns that exceed inflation. The average inflation rate in India has been around 6%-7% per year in the past. Inflation may be a little higher for some types of expenses. Especially medical and lifestyle expenses are increasing at the rate of 8%-10% per year. There is no tax exemption on the income earned from savings accounts. If a person's annual income is more than Rs. 12,00,000 and he earns 3% income from his savings account, then 0.9% of it will go towards income tax. He will get only 2.1% as net income. If the annual inflation rate is 7%, he will lose minus 4.9% of his income. Due to this, we recommend not keeping too much money in savings accounts. Investment plans..! Investment plans are plans that provide higher returns than savings. Investment plans are generally of two types. In the first type, there is no risk to capital. For example, bank deposit schemes, debt securities of leading companies, post office sa...
