will be very interesting to see
the 2020-2030 decadal returns !

BSE Sensex has given 15.5% CAGR returns & if we add an average dividend yield of 1.4% for the last 43 years, the total returns come to 16.9%.
At 16.9% compounding the value of BSE is actually over 𝟴𝟬,𝟬𝟬𝟬 levels and not 61,112 levels what it is today.
Mind boggling isn't it !

In the last 21 years there is NOT a single 7 yr rolling period which had NIL returns. This means since 2002 if you did a BUY & HOLD for a minimum period of 7 yrs, then you would have "𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆".
YES, you are reading it right
" NEVER LOST MONEY "

Equity returns are always lumpy & not linear but "Long term investing literally guarantees solid compounding RETURNS"
As an investor, just BUY & HOLD a #sensex or #nifty ETF and your long term returns will easily beat inflation & create excellent wealth for you !
KEEP INVESTING !
