Is value investment only for lump-sum investment?
Value investment is must for Lump-sum investment. If SIP is of more than 3 years, value investing can generate more returns than traditional SIP. For SIP of less than 3 years, value investing can provide better stability against the downside of the market.
Does Mfundz try to find top and bottom of the market?
Certainly not, we only follow valuations. So, it's not appropriate to consider that we apply switch when the market turns and vice versa. Investment does not generate positive risk-free returns at higher valuations and thus we suggest a switch from equity to debt fund.
How do you decide valuations at Mfundz?
From historical data research; we have created matrix of border (Broader) index PE, PB, Dividend Yield and Interest Rate. So, we consider all important parameters to generate valuations of the overall equity market.
How much benefits can I expect if I opt for value investing?
Due to regulatory limitations, we can not promise about definite returns in the mutual fund industry. But our assurance is; if we could not deliver 12% CAGR over a 3-year period, we promise to return our advisory fees.
