The mid and smallcap category has taken a larger hit compared to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fundsindia.com\/blog\/mf-research\/mutual-funds\/fundsindia-explains-what-are-largecap-funds\/10671\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">large caps<\/a>. The reasons range from US-China trade war, global slowdown, domestic slowdown, tight funding conditions, NBFC credit crunch, sharp decline in consumer sentiment etc.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Now the key question is &#8211; will the markets fall further?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are two ways to approach this problem:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Approach 1: Every falling market is different. You need to manage your portfolio based on your views of the fundamental event that has caused it.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is extremely difficult to pull off in reality. Think about the major events which have hit us in the past \u2013 2000 Dot Com Crisis, 2008 Subprime Crisis, 2011 Euro Debt crisis, 2016 China Crisis etc. And add to it other events such as Domestic Elections, Budget, Trump winning, Brexit, Fed Policy, Demonetisation, NBFC crisis etc. To evaluate each and every one of them correctly and predict how millions of investors will react to it, consistently is a tall ask.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of the best minds seem to agree.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAfter nearly 50 years in this business, I do not know of anybody who has done market timing successfully and consistently. I don\u2019t even know anybody who knows anybody who has done it successfully and consistently.\u201d \u2013 Jack Bogle<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI never have the faintest idea what the stock market is going to do in the next six months, or the next year, or the next two.\u201d\u00a0 \u2013 Warren Buffet<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that predicting the markets in the short run, remains close to an impossible task, that leaves us with the second approach<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Approach 2: All declines in the market are temporary and markets eventually recover. Equities go up in the long run and all declines are opportunities in retrospect. So all you need is a systematic process to buy equities when it falls<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now with the humble submission that we won\u2019t be able to predict the direction of the markets in the near term, this is a <\/span><b>\u201cPreparation\u201d<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> approach as against a <\/span><b>\u201cPrediction\u201d<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> approach.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The idea is that, while we<\/span><b> won\u2019t be able <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to <\/span><b>predict <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">or <\/span><b>forecast <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the next event which will impact the market, we can <\/span><b>prepare<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by <\/span><b>setting reasonable expectations <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and<\/span><b> deciding <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">on an<\/span><b> action plan<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is simply acknowledging that you\u2019re pretty sure negative events which impact the markets will happen from time to time, but you\u2019re not exactly sure <\/span><b>when<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Why is it important to be clear on which approach to take?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When market correction starts, there is usually some negative event causing it. Intuitively, your mind will say that the markets will fall further. But you resist the lure. And then the expected happens \u2013 the market falls again just as your intuition suggested.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>This point in a falling market where your intuition comes right in the short term is the most dangerous phase.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> You regret not having listened to your intuition. Your regret takes the form of &#8211; \u201cIf only I had sold earlier..\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You still resist the lure. The market falls yet again. Phew. You were right all along. Maybe you should have listened to your intuition. Your regret gets over you. This time is different. Let me get out now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>\u201cWhen things improve I will get back\u201d. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You utter the most dangerous words during a falling market.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You have suddenly moved from your original view that <\/span><b>\u201cyou can\u2019t predict the markets\u201d<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to <\/span><b>\u201clet me evaluate the fundamental event that has caused it and take a call on when to enter back\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Evidence is overwhelming that this approach usually leads to failure in handling a market decline as you need to get the timing right two times &#8211; entry and exit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is exactly why you need to make up your mind on your stance right now. This will be the determinant of how you handle market declines.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>So how do we convert this \u201cevery fall is an opportunity\u201d into an investment strategy?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the market fall continues, you get into the trap of constantly evaluating your portfolios and trying to make decisions on an as-and-when basis as new events\/news\/opinions keep bombarding us. Each and every time the market falls, the honest truth is that we really have no prediction capabilities to tell if the fall will continue or the markets will bounce back. So the key is not to look at each and every event\/news\/opinion as a reminder to take a decision.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In fact, the last thing we want you to do is to go unprepared into a falling market trying to take daily decisions based on the evolving events.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>When it comes to decision-making, less is more <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and you need to reduce the number of decisions to be taken. Most importantly you need to have a clear <\/span><b>pre-decided plan <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">on<\/span><b> WHEN <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><b>WHAT<\/b> <b>decision<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to take.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A simple plan might look like:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the market falls by 10% then I will&#8230;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the market falls by 20% then I will&#8230;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the market falls by 30% then I will&#8230;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the market falls by 40% then I will&#8230;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the market falls by 50% then I will&#8230;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This will ensure that you are better prepared to take advantage of the market if it falls further.
