The year 2022 has been so far, rough for investors globally, and the situation is no different for an average Indian investor. Standard and Poor's (S&P), Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) Sensex & Nifty stock market returns have been in the negative this year, being very little for the investor to cheer about. The Indian equity markets are undergoing a cycle of correction. The global crude oil prices and supply chain constraints owing to the Russia-Ukraine war and the post-pandemic global inflation have had a negative impact on the Indian investor.
