CIO's Communique
Dear investors and partners,
Currently, the Indian equity markets seems to be in consolidation phase after the recent bout of correction with valuations correcting to more reasonable levels. While some India specific factors have also contributed to the correction, the Emerging Markets globally have corrected as well. As we witness a stronger global growth scenario and oil prices remain above USD 65 per barrel there could be potential risks to inflation especially if the Rupee weakens. However, with US shale gas production ramping up substantially, hopefully oil prices may not rise much from here. The recent Union Budget announcements could also pose some upside risks to a higher fiscal deficit particularly if the government were to implement its intent of higher MSP for farmers. Going forward, the markets will closely watch for the monthly revenue collection from GST as they will be a key variable in the budget math. However, bottom up, we are beginning to see a recovery in the earnings cycle. Demand for CVs, cement, passenger cars, 2Ws, retail lending etc. is robust. So, markets are essentially caught in a tug-of-war between weaker macros and improving micros which will result in heightened volatility particularly given a challenging global environment. We are cautiously optimistic on Indian Equity market returns for the rest of CY 2018 as the markets take a breather after the sharp up move in the past three odd years.
In such a scenario, many equity investors face the dilemma as to whether to stay invested in equity or to move investments into safer options. During such regimes, retail investors may fall prey to market timing. But it is well known that many investors have
failed to generate any meaningful returns trying to time the market by rotating in and out of equities in an endeavor to manage their holdings in the face of market volatility and valuation cycles. It is very important to understand that few people, including the masters of investing world globally have ever been able to time the markets. Investing
is never about timing the market but it is about the time that you spend in the market. There are empirical evidences both in global and Indian equities, where high-quality stocks have rewarded the investors with compounded value of investments year on year.
The ideal course of action for equity investors is to stay the course and invest for the long haul and follow sound Asset Allocation principles. The main goal of asset allocation is to optimally diversify across core asset classes such as Equities, Fixed Income, Bank Deposits, Gold and Real Estate etc. in the context of the investor's financial goals to minimize overall risk and maximize returns. While Equity is a more volatile asset class, equities have historically delivered superior returns over longer periods and would be suitable for wealth creation and beating inflation over the long haul. In contrast, debt instruments such as bonds have lower volatility and are suitable for steady income generation. But as these asset classes have low correlations, they can be suitably combined with an aim to develop well-diversified portfolios that deliver financial outcomes across time.
A renowned Basketball coach Dr. Jack Ramsay once noted, Winning is more related to good defense than good offense”. Applied to investing, winning in investing is made possible through sound asset allocation. Asset allocation offers diversification and in turn diversification enables better risk management: with a mix of different investment options from various asset classes, the impact may not be as much by changes to a single category. Diverse asset allocation also helps investors ride out market highs and lows and resist the urge to speculate during market swings.
Mutual funds are the ideal vehicles for implementing strategic and tactical asset allocation for realizing financial goals. They offer various solutions to retail investors while leveraging the investment expertise of professionals. Furthermore, Systematic Investment plans (SIPs) in Mutual funds also give investors the opportunity to benefit from rupee-cost averaging and help
ride out the ebb and flow of markets and follow a disciplined long-term approach to wealth creation. “Mutual funds Sahi Hai” is the mantra!
Having said so, there will always be an appetite amongst investors who would like to take exposure to equity funds like Principal Emerging Bluechip Fund, Principal Growth Fund, Principal Large Cap Fund and Principal Dividend Yield Fund. However, to the other set of investors, who are risk averse, we suggest hybrid equity oriented fund such as Principal Balanced Fund or a dynamic asset allocation fund such as Principal Smart Equity Fund or funds from equity savings category such as Principal Equity Savings Fund which offer blended allocation between equities, fixed income and cash-future arbitrage while mitigating the associated risks.
