Pitfalls – Rule #1 – Overinvesting in a single stock

JainMatrix Investments shares Pitfalls – Rule #1 in the video below

Dear Investor,

In my Research Analyst advisory practice, I often found that investors can fall in love with a particular stock, and overinvest in it, rather than taking a basket or portfolio approach. This exposes investors to this risk.

In the equity markets, there is always a small probability that any one company can be negatively affected by an unexpected event. It could be a business cycle downturn. It could be a fire in a factory. It could be raising of interest rates by RBI. Or a random or unpredictable event. Some examples of sudden falls can include Yes Bank, IL&FS Ltd., Vakrangee Ltd, Future Retail, etc. These companies suffered a sudden fall in recent years, and surprised many investors, sometimes after many years of doing very well.

The hedge against this for an investor is, to invest in a basket or portfolio of stocks at a time.

Over a period of time this basket or portfolio may have widely different results in terms of individual performances. Some shares may appreciate very well, while others stay flat or worse. But at least the single stock investment risk is not there.

If chosen well, this investment in a group of stocks can be a great step in your wealth building process.

Celebrating 10 years, and a look at Pitfalls

Dear Investor,

At JainMatrix Investments, I am happy to announce we have completed 10 years as a Research Analyst company. (we did get the RA certification in 2016, when the norms kicked in, but were practicing from earlier).

On this occasion, the best thing I can share with you, dear investor, are my learnings from the profession. Just like any equity investor in India, over the last decade we have seen upcycles and downcycles. The USA real estate crash of 2008 and the 2014 euphoria of Indian elections. Demonetization of 2016. The covid collapse of 2020 and the IT sector excitement of 2021. Add to this company and industry specific up and down cycles.

Survival and even success through these periods has been based on learnings of what to do, and also not do on our investment portfolio. The latter can be called as Pitfalls.

In this campaign, we will share with you the Pitfalls you must avoid in order to succeed as an investor. These are the rules I thought of, realized were required, experimented with and against, and finally established as a Gold Standard Rule. I would recommend every single individual investor to follow these, to get a better chance of success.

In wealth management as well as in Direct Equity investments, these Rules must be followed.

Here is Rule #1 from this Pitfalls Campaign from JainMatrix Investments.

Here’s to your profitable investing.
