My target is to regularly invest a certain sum – say 1 Lakh per month in Equity Mutual Fund but for last one month have held back. Now that the Stock Markets has risen to very high levels, thanks to a large quantity of speculators, how does one go about investing in Mutual Funds
– Avoid Equity Funds (including SIP) completely?
– Invest in Debt Fund or Liquid Fund and systematically transfer to Equity (SWP – SIP)
– Invest in Balanced Fund (Hybrid Equity)
– Keep the SIP on for a longer period distributed over (INR 20K per fortnight) selective funds)
The rally in stocks is scary that it does not seem to have any basis and experts who was till 3 months ago projecting a fall is now suggesting a further rise. This is confusing.
