Should you go with Direct stock picking? Or

Should you go with Active Mutual Fund? Or

Should you go with Index Fund?

Time for Small Thread 👇👇👇
First of all Beware of miss-selling investment products

There are always new and creative ways to sell new funds and products that pay up to the investor emotions

The menu is being changed constantly
*Direct Stock Picking*

Your chances of picking the winning stock are very small while your odds of picking a loser are fairly large

Even The best investors cannot outperform over every single market cycle
If you can't control your reactions under stressful situations then direct stock picking is not for you
*Active Mutual Fund*

If you are investing for the long term then an active mutual fund's ability to beat the index is very less

Only a 0.07℅ chance that an Active mutual fund could stay on top consistently, while the other 99.93% could not
All Active funds are not evil

The point is really to show how difficult it is to find consistent outperformers in stock market

Research also shows that most active managers generate returns above their benchmark on a gross basis, but that those excess returns are offset by fees
* Index Fund

Index funds have a very high chance to beat active funds and Expenses ratios play a big part

And also remember you will never win a lottery ticket by investing in an index fund

But far better than No return or underperforming index
Bonus advice: Why do most of the investors fail to bethe at benchmark

The quote 'Studying for a greater cause' is brought into play here.

Hello,

Sharing about one Good Initiative

Academia_thriftnate is a book shop on Instagram affiliated with Cholo Paltai NGO. @cholopaltai2 has led many drives for stationery, food, Yaas relief etc.
The Calcutta Anti-covid belt emerged from them and now they are helping to rebuild Sunderban. But the funds collected aren't sufficient so they started a page where you can sell, buy or donate books and 75% of the profit goes to Cholo Paltai donation fund.
This initiative has many positive collateral impacts like waste reduction, saving trees etc. So would be grateful for your help. Even following the page or liking the posts will help them to reach many more people who NEED help and who CAN help.

“In economics, one of the first lessons He learned was that capital is limited and has alternative uses, including satisfaction of consumption. You can do your best to find a good use for its growth.
As long as the search for yields and risk minimization is in balance, you can do well,”
