Investment Advisor Need Of The Hour!

Market volatility is not new to investors and even bear markets are not unknown for those who have spent considerable amount of time in the markets. However, there are many investors who are not ready, prepared or well-equipped to deal with both bear market conditions and market volatility. How does one deal with such tough market conditions and continue to make money? Can investment advisors really help investors in such turbulent times? Yogesh Supekar candidly discusses the issue of hiring an investment advisor so as to maximise gains and avoid the market pitfalls 

Rohit Mantri, a first-time equity investor who opened a dematerialisation account with a leading discount broker in India, started pouring money into equities in 2020 when the pandemic hit us all in the most unexpected manner. Within a matter of months, owing to the sharp rebound in the equity prices, the portfolio size of Rohit swelled into lakhs. The confidence was sky-high and stock prices jumped rapidly, allowing Rohit to turn all his dreams into reality. It was irresistible for Rohit to not invest more into equities. The good momentum continued in 2021 as well, leading to ten times’ gains in just 18 months in his portfolio.
