So, equity investments deliver superlative returns in the long term….
Pls think again 樂
Check the above point to point …data
A lot depends on
*When did we start to invest*
*How long have we stayed invested*
*How frequently or how infrequently did we buy / sell / continue to hold*
*What kind of investments have we done*
*What’s out Asset Allocation mix*
*Are we tracking our entire financial assets at a portfolio level and then, check the CAGR returns over a time frame*
*Did we lose money?*
*Did any Asset / Product pull our returns down*?
*Did we have better options to invest when we started out to actually invest or in the midst*
*Where our expectations more or less, to where we stand?*
*If so, is it being looked at from the holding period of the portfolio, and along with the kind of Asset mix we hold?*
*If not, could we have taken a higher or a lower risk with our money?*
And not to leave out the *things which are never ever under our control*…..
