Share Market News: Recently, the decision of US President Donald Trump to impose heavy tariffs on many countries has caused a stir in the global markets. Due to this policy, investors from all over the world are seen keeping distance from the market, and India has also not remained untouched by this effect. There has been a huge sell-off in the Indian stock market, due to which investors have suffered a loss of lakhs of crores of rupees.However, market experts believe that there is no need to panic due to this temporary fluctuation. Experts say that the fundamentals of the Indian economy are strong and from a long-term perspective, it remains an attractive investment destination. In such a situation, instead of panicking, investors are advised to reconsider their strategy and move forward by diversifying it.Diversification in portfolio is necessaryMarket experts and other market analysts clearly suggest that investors should spread their entire money in many areas instead of investing it in a single asset class. Such as:
- Stock market: Regular investment in the shares of selected good companies through SIP (Systematic Investment Plan).
- Bonds: Investing in select government and corporate bonds can be expected to give stable returns.
- Gold and silver: These metals are helpful in protecting capital in times of crisis.
- FD: FD can also be used as a fixed interest rate investment option.
- In today’s times, it is important to focus on alternative assets along with traditional investment options:
- REITs (Real Estate Investment Trusts) and InvITs (Infrastructure Investment Trusts) offer investors stable cash flows and diversification.
- Traditional options like gold and silver help provide stability in a falling market.
- However, experts recommend that the share of these assets should not exceed 20–30% of the total portfolio.
- Invest wisely and patiently
- The volatility created by global developments can be challenging for investors, but it is also an opportunity for those who go with a long-term strategy. If you are a smart investor, this is not the time to panic, but to re-arrange and diversify your investments.
- An emerging market like India still has plenty of potential – all you need is prudence and balance.
