Indian Stock Market and Mutual Funds

I track my mutual fund portolfio movement daily (basically next day after NAV is updated) and it has been brutal logging those details since last 3 - 4 days. In just last 4 days, I am seeing notional loss of 4.6L. Yeh dukh kaahe khatam nahi hota.

Actual bear markets are much more brutal than this, time and/or price, + will also have bonus of continuous bad news. Things that were working easily in bull market can start punishing instead.

I guess we need to experience it atleast once, but just saying that this is relatively mild.
And most of the excess is in mid/small caps which aren't hurting that much. If they crash, then the masses will feel it. But crashes don't happen often.

Was just reading a article on this these new investors after covid have not seen anything and are getting scared in a mere 10% fall people saw the gains of people who invested in covid time and entered in market in last 2-3 yrs and are now panicking.
Guys Brace for impact

Not saying markets will crash. But people should know that they do happen and be prepared for it.
If this is making someone sweat then its likely that they will find it tough to manage when shit hits the fan.

Crashes happen maybe couple of times a decade or less and its hard to say when that might happen. Bull runs can last even when it seems stretched.
And then there are perma bears too who keep calling crash crash and market keeps rising.
But people are in crazy mode with small companies for sure.

No company likes crashes especially when they are doing bad, During market boom companies can repair damages without anyone noticing, as a single bad news can destroy investment made in marketing.
 
do not stop sips, but should have some cash available always so one can invest in when market moves down, also if one sees good profit in any stock one should sell, if not all then partially so you can reap some profit. but be patience.

I did sell 2 stocks last week but not because i wanted money. It was more so because I saw the price movement of last 2 years and stock hardly moved apart from 10 rupees up or down and i had planned to sell like an year back but for some reason didn't. So just sold and cashed out.
 
I mostly target to keep stocks for atleast 1 year so i can have LTCG. Sometimes i just keep them if they are just laggarding, like i kept PayTm and some of my known sold it on 1-2 day of listing. I then accumulated it and sold some just this week to have profit. Now will sold it when reaches near 1300-1400
