Hi, I want to become an analyst. I am neither an MBA, nor do I have a relevant certificate or diploma. But I have several years of experience as a professional and a Master’s degree. How can I start from the scratch? I can enroll in an online program, if it is advisable. I wish to do fundamental analysis like a real pro.
Advice and suggestions requested

Suggestion on mutual fund SIP (12-04-2024)
Yes, I understand that. What I mean is, it is unfortunately not possible to participate in the global stocks through PPFAS, and that’s a big loss for investors like me who don’t know how to buy foreign companies like Tesla and NVidia

You are absolutely right and the cricket analogy is perfect. I am actually trying to build another pf with just big hitters . I actually had some great stocks but sold them to repay a loan and become debt free. Don’t know if it was the right decision because some of those stocks are now 5x. (persistent systems, bse, elecon engineering, abb and BEL to name a few). But no point regretting; need to start again.

Actually we can not say it as restriction because SEBI set capping on buying foreign equity and Parag Parekh fund’s buying of foreign equity is already heavy, that is the effect of capping and not the restrictions, I hope this might be helpful

Your PF should be like a typical cricket team, where few stocks should be big hitters ( small caps), few all rounders (compounding stocks) and few defensive stocks (large caps). Looking at your current PF, you already have good mix of defensive and all rounders. Also few of your stocks like Zomato and Poonawala Fincorp can be the big hitters. You may need to add few more small caps first by using screener to filter and then using this valued forum to read qualitative information about those companies before buying them.

Thank you…ITC and ICICI Bank are around 10 percent of the PF at CMP. Rest are 5 to 6 percent. Zomato was just a tracking position but it is now almost 4x. Tata Motors, Tata Power and TCS are among the smallest holdings.
I intend to pass this portfolio on to my children and won’t do much tweaking till it is absolutely necessary. Your advice is beneficial since it suggests my thinking is right.
But, this portfolio is just around 40 percent of my intended investment in the market. I plan to invest at least 1.5 times more.
The real challenge now is to build a fresh portfolio with some aggressive bets. I have built some tracking positions and intend to have around 15 mid and small cap stocks in it by the end of this year. I will post it once it takes shape. This forum helps me get valuable insights into businesses that I have identified.
Grateful for your feedback.

Not sure about % holding of these stocks. You have a good portfolio picked up at reasonable valuations. You will do pretty good even if you don’t do anything.
You can tweak here and there to get sector balance if you find that missing else just sleep over it unless a company valuation goes thru roof and you want to sell or biz fundamentals have deteriorated and needs exit.
