Any Investing tips for a Clueless Beginner?
I've always lived paycheck to paycheck, but I want to start investing.
Where do I even begin? What advice would you give to a complete beginner in personal finance?
We have heard so many times that it's difficult to beat the index and people should stick to investing in index mutual funds.
Well I've been doing SIP in selected non-index funds for past 4-5 years and surprised to that I'm comfortably beating nifty 50 benchmark.
How are your gains looking and how long have you been investing?
Your XIRR is too good. Sharpe Ratio?
My risk is also lower than nifty 50 (8.2 vs 9.5). Return/Risk ratio is almost 2x of the benchmark.
Not every fund beats the index at all the time windows. Your outperformance is due to you being in the fund that outperformed the index and that might not be always true.
The above summary of the SPIVA report provides context. Read the full report, it has interesting data.
I'm aware of this. My SIP is not just in 1 fund.
Please provide the details of the funds you have and their percentages in your portfolio
