    Updates from RBI announcements

    @bronsontaur I won't argue about Urjit Patel. But definitely the govt didn't remove RR. He completed his term and the govt considered giving him another term. He wanted the second term to end on his timeline - timed with the opening at the university. Obviously the govt did not accept it...

    @jtmsavestheday Thanks for the post. There have been many comments that have focused on the networth, and the last para. But not much on point 1. Due to my interests, I have had access to many personal finance situation and have this to say, quite loudly. Your NETWORTH is not a SIMPLE...

    What am I doing wrong?

    @duffy44 My point did not come across clearly. It was about how much you are investing per month. Where you are investing comes later.

    Returns: LIC vs Gold vs Nifty

    @ania I am an old man here. India had a lot of mutual funds from around 30 years back. UTI's monopoly ended in late 80s. By early 90s, private players were also in. Franklin Prima and Bluechip date from those days. By 95 or so, many debt funds were also launched. (One source -...

    What am I doing wrong?

    @duffy44 A blunt question. You have low expenses. How much are you actually investing per month? If this is not 50% of your income, at the least, then you have a lot to correct. You can consider the money given to father as your share of expenses. Add your travel to it. You should be investing...

    SEBI's Analysis of Profit and Loss of Individual Traders in F&O

    @cookie34ss6 I am not sure why something is a shame. Particularly FY21-22 is an interesting year since the top was reached just after the mid of the year. One biggest selling point used by all those courses is that traders can make money in any kind or market.

    Buying T-bills (Treasury Bills) and Government Bonds directly v/s Investing in Liquid & Overnight Funds

    @kuskus1 A point that I did not see.... Often people compare previous year return of liquid funds and future yield of t-bilss. This can be misleading when interest rates have changed. You can look at the YTM of the liquid fund for a better comparison. e.g the YTM of Parag Parikh liquid is a...

    Issue with calculating Tracking Error for Index fund

    NAV will no longer be the the date of purchase for mutual funds?

    @megusta There have been many comments and the opinions are varied. A crucial point though. The title given by OP need not be taken as such. It is not that the NAV would always be delayed. It is just that the trigger for allotment has been changed from purchase order to receipt of payment...

    Passive investing: ETF vs Mutual Funds. Do we have a new winner? (Data backed research)

    @resjudicata The OP added the tracking error and the TER to what they called 'annual costs'. That is incorrect. Published numbers of funds are after TER has been deducted.

    Stimulus/Revival Package - Tranche 5 - May 17

    @montse811 To put the GOI view - the 20 lac cr includes the initial measures announced, and the RBI measures, and the 5 tranches. They have consistently mentioned this. Almost all of the initial package was fiscal. One would expect that analysts would include them. BTW, here are some nice...

    @azknight Actually, as a person involved in the business, you may like the overall outcome. There was a good discussion and people not in MO AMC have pointed out that the tracking error is indeed low. The discussion is also a reminder to people that forex movements are not always in one...
