Portfolio loss in this market fall 2016.

all investors lost money in this market fall of around 20 %. in index. many investors lost more than this. share how is your portfolio looking now.returns in %

 

my portfolio lost around 21% in this fall

 

Very bad situation. Total loss on one day is Rs. 3 lakh crore. I am also in bad shape but not counting because of shock it gives

 

ha ha dont count it friend. give it in %. my loss is 21%.

 

Brother ,

My loss is - 11.81 %

but no problem , i am fully confident and if again fall no problem for me

 

very limited loss only 11%. thats great achievement sir.

 

Only 11% Sir it means heavy out-performance of portfolio is there.

 

Good habit ,I also never count loss or profit as all these are notional and paper figures till you realy press the sell button. I also just keep on investing in good compnies and kicking out non performing compnies stocks irrespective of price performance.I just increase my buying intensity at fall and if market start making new high ,I slow down my investment .This happens automatically as I have put in place a formula to keep my networth in different assets classes.Equity is 30% %,Real estate 40% Debt 20% mostly my PFs , Gratuity and other job related benefits like superanuation or tax saving related savings ,Gold 2%%,my choice bet for extra delta 8% including cash which I always fail to keep..So if any investment assets class breach higher level,I don't sell that class but slow down /stop fresh investment in that and all fresh investments go in that class which has gone down lower from target.If I feel strongly some asstets can give extra return,I can just overweight it from my choice bet of 8%.After that rebalancing is must.Presently both my bigger bets like Real estate and equity are not giving comfort,but will stick to my formula irrespective of consequences.

 

very good planning , My Trade plan is very clear , i always do trading and Investment both in only quality stocks
i take losses and also i try for good return for my risk , and if market may fall deeper i am prepared for that also

 

my view is we should eye on some major issues like

1.Indian GDP Growth
2.Indian monsoon situation
3. Quarterly results
4.FII 's flow
5.China Problem
6.Budget
7.US and European Economies

if world get double dip rescission also we must plan and face those Economic catastrophe also .... for next 2 -3 years

we have to plan like that

 

sir liked your plan and focus areas. thanks for sharing

 

I read somewhere that even Warren Buffet's portfolio can go down . Use the opportunity to buy good quality stocks and diversify the portfolio. I too am not counting my gains or losses as portfolio re balancing is not over yet.

 

My portfolio is down by 25 % in this blood bath.

Arrow coated leading the carnage. Bought at 700, Now ACP at 430 even after good results and interim divident of 3 rs /share.

 

My pf is -15.5%

 

in my view always we have to try above market performance
ex: if market fall 10 % , our portfolio should lose below 10 % is best , and if market raise 10 % our portfolio should perform above 10 % .... and also make money management to restrict losses ....

dont worry sir , in relief rally you will get some chance ..
ALL THE BEST Sir

 

Thanks Rama sir for ur reply.I never expected a crash like this. I was on small profit (all were greater than buy value) in all the scripts I had. If I had the slightest clue, I could have taken some cash out. Anyway Market will recover in sometime. I am happy as long as the fundamentals of companies are intact.Let us hope for the best.

 

Great.....

Did you invest a long time ago in your stocks and is this also one reason for lower losses?

 

No darth ji , main reason for less loss is i am 70 % Trader and 30 % Investor , so i always try to book my profit in short term .... and another major point is i always follow Technical Analysis in trading , that is always protect my capital with short term profits from majority of my trading capital ...

i always separate my capital in to 2 parts
1 is for Trading capital 70 %
2 nd is Investment for medium term 2-3 years 30 % investment capital

so i escape from this fall with my technicals and i almost exit my 70 % trading positions at 7500 levels ,
and maintain 70 % cash and slowly infuse cash in my stocks is the main reason for my less loss ....

ALL THE BEST

 

Very sensible strategy to follow to book profits now and then. In chakkar of long term investing all profits are gone and there is heavy loss

 

I also feel so ,I am planning to strictly follow assets allocation in future ,which I am doing but always ends up being caught over weight by 8% in equity at the time of corrections.Now I will strictly remain over weight only upto 5% and to keep rest 3% as cash for correction, but might find it difficult as I am permanent Bull by nature.
