Anywhere I go
i hear people saying
I investing in nfity 50 stocks
NEXT 50 STOCKS blah blah blah
but historically alpha 50 gave more returns than these two indices
Is it because of its high drawdown
or its because of “not being as popular as others”?
Yeah agree with you but i’ve been getting great returns
ofc risk management and all plays a crucial rule
but what you saying is HIGH volatility makes it a less interesting place to invest right
I’m done with kotak and all
I’ll running an alpha 50 portfolio and ill start sharing my portfolio, new entry stocks, exits and much more and try to beat the kotak and as well as alpha 50 (hopefully)
At what timeframes? discount recent 2-3 Years of post covid jumps. becoz alpha rebalance is 3 months and nifty 50 is 6 months which obviously makes alpha better to pick quick runs.
Last since jan 2021
i’ve got like 45ish pct and it was like monthly rebalanced so yeah
timeframe basis 1yr is not good to judge
but i stick to my algo mate
it worked in choppy markets only
imagine when bull run starts
Did not understand this. Are you investing in 50 individual stocks directly based on the weightage given, kind of you having your own Fund? Not clear. I thought the only option was to invest through Kotak…
my bad
what i mean to say is
NIFTY ALPHA 50 gives better returns
KOTAK ETFs (correct me if im wrong) weights exactly like ALPHA 50 right?
and i didn’t liked their style
so i wanna make my own portfolio and invest in fewer set of alpha 50 stocks than investing in all the 50 stocks
Strategy indices are yet to gain momentum from investors, as they are not recommended, considering their short history compared to Nifty, and the element of arbitrary definition.
And for someone who is starting MF investing, or moving from active to passive, Nifty is suggested, and as one matures, and is comfortable with volatility, low AUM, and can take some action when necessary, may be strategy indices can be chosen.
And there are Nifty Next 50 and Nifty Midcap 150 for higher return than Nifty, which are more volatile.
That is because due to lacs of demat accounts opened in the past few years, out of which many are still active, and many of these holders know about ETFs, along with the obvious investors who have been investing or trading in ETFs for a while.
Yeah but in India I was expecting funds are preferred due to ETFs low liquidity and in some cases decent tracking error. I am personally into funds due to the possible liquidity issues. May be I should consider moving into ETFs if this is the reality of the situation.
Yes, there is the practical problem of liquidity at the time of selling, if one has accumulated units in larger numbers, also the price-NAV difference can have an impact, even if there is liquidity. So for long term ETFs are not suggested.
Then I wonder why AUMs of ETFs are higher than Funds. And the distribution also is quite concerning in terms of how much retail owns and how much IIs/Corporates own
