Due highly volatility in Indian market , prevaling geopolitical uncertainty, rising inflation, repo rate hike by Rbi, financial crisis in our neighbouring countries like srilanka and Pakistan, rising crude price , heavy selling by foreign institutional investor and foreign portfolio investors, there is a panic and chaos in Indian stock market currently. But long term investors need not worry and sell their portfolio due to fear, instead rearrange your portfolios, diversify your investment in fixed deposits, bonds, debenture, mutual funds, equities, real estate, gold bond issued by government. All my posts are for educational purposes, please do your due diligence while investing according to your risk appetite.
