I read all the financial papers and websites, especially Moneycontrol, and follow discussions on this forum. I have plenty of time as I don’t work any more and use this spare time for reading whatever I can, including news and brokerage reports etc.

Suggestion on mutual fund SIP (12-04-2024)
I had invested in parag parekh but it underperformed the market for some time and then there were restrictions on buying foreign equity. Have the restrictions been lifted?

Thank you. You are right about the Fin sector. Not expecting miracles till inflation is not controlled and rates don’t come down (looks unlikely till end of this year).
Yes, I would like to trim the number of stocks in the portfolio but, as you said, won’t do it till there is a compelling reason to sell.
My patience with HDFC Life is running out, though.

Thank you very much for your advice. I understand the basics of finance because of my interest in reading. I will look for YT resources on fundamental analysis.

Welcome back! I would like to supply with my humble opinion on the above.
Your current PF looks ok… for long term and try to cover sector wise, I mean buy good, valued stocks which are fundamentally strong and if you apply this filter, you may be able to trim some of the above.
Coming to your questions.
- How can I learn to evaluate a company and its balance sheet?
If you have a finance background, you may use screener and try to get insights. If you are not, then you may try to learn yourself by using YT videos which are plenty. If you are taking active investing as full-time career initial years should be spent on learning which is continuous process. Watch Global and Domestic economy news – Money Control subscription is enough to start with.
- How can I make informed decisions on when to invest in a company and when to get out? I have had a problem with this strategy as I have made decisions based on instinct so far and exited some real good investments at the wrong time and held on to some laggards like HDFC Life for many years.
This skill can only be achieved by close observation and learning only… Even experts may make mistakes.
- Will it be a good idea to pursue an online course on investing, and if yes, what would be the options.
NO need to invest in paid courses. attend courses which are free and well known

Delta Corp – A huge but risky opportunity (12-04-2024)
New Government will have some clarity I expect… Since there is no much competition any positive move will bring up this business on fast track…
