Performance Update

A SEA OF RED – RBI coming out with a sudden announcement to hike interest rates only added to the prevailing pessimism. Markets cracked hard in reaction to this with Nifty 50 losing 4% and other benchmarks losing between 4% & 6% this week. Volatility has spiked & FIIs have continued to sell aggressively while Domestic inflows have ensure that the fall isn’t bigger. Rising yields , soaring inflation , partial lockdowns in few parts of China , constant outbreak scare of other variants of COVID , war tensions , etc are a few major factors that may be responsible for this downtrend. Interest rates are likely to be higher till inflation is brought under control in which case stock markets may not react to this in a positive way. This may be a good time to reevaluate your risk appetite & diversification if you came under panic in any of the last few trading sessions.


NASDAQ – the global flagship tech index is down 24% and it’s Indian counterpart – Nifty IT is also down 20% from recent highs. REALTY came under heavy selling this week with the index plunging 8%. In the last one month, IT & REALTY are down 14% , METALS & PSU Banks are down 10% while ENERGY has been the only sector to continue trade in green. These are definitely very tough times if not the toughest and one needs to participate with utmost caution.
Most WeekendInvesting Smallcases are down after a decent start in FY 23 and we hope things will turn around at some point if not soon enough. If the downward trend continues, absolute momentum strategies will see gradual allocation to CASH while rotational momentum strategies will stick to the strongest stocks in their universe. You may not have to worry about the short term happenings of the markets as long as you are investing in a system with proper rules.

Performance is updated below.


FY 2022 Performance Report

SHORT COURSE to Help you Stay Calm in All Market Conditions

Usually, quick – sharp corrections amidst a Bull Run creates ambiguity in the minds of lots of new investors. The most important questions we often get asked is whether markets will crash from here ? Should we exit ? and few other questions like these. We have made several videos to help you clarify many such questions and help you have the RIGHT MINDSET for a rewarding journey in investing.

We have put together a few of our previous Daily Bytes which we think might be relevant for times like these. Do have a look and send us your thoughts, questions or comments if any.


The smallcase products are all LONG ONLY products that invest in various subsegments of the markets but have the momentum theme underlying in all of them. The strategies will pick strong outperforming stocks and remove weak ones once a week (except NNF10 which is monthly rebalanced)

These are all long term strategies that will create enormous wealth in each upswing and then maybe give some back in the downswing and repeating this process again and again achieving the compounding effect. With patience and grit to follow strategy over ups and downs over the last nearly five years it has been shown that much superior CAGR returns are possible than the benchmarks.
FY22 was also superb and I will let the numbers speak for themselves. You may read the Consolidated FY22 report.

STAIRS Revamped Models

We have launched revamped versions of our STAIRS models and we had made a video giving you a basic introduction to the models.

STAIRS is a LONG / SHORT derivative strategy that is designed to offer an uncorrelated diversification option to your equity portfolio. STAIRS will do well when there are up trends & also when there are down trends while giving up some of the gains when markets remain rangebound / volatile.

Except for EXP model which clocked (+3.4%), all other models stayed flat as volatility & choppiness continued in the markets. You may go through this report to read through the Weekly Report

All 4 STAIRS models go in line with our fundamental philosophy of making the most and compounding aggressively when markets give us trends and go very defensive as trends fizzle out and enter a rangebound territory thus providing a robust capital & profit protection.

Effectively – STAIRS is a complete trading system (Futures & Options) that covers each of the following decisions required for a successful trading outcome:

• Markets – What to buy or sell ?

• Position Sizing – How much to buy or sell ?

• Entries – When to buy or sell ?

• Stops – When to get out of a losing position ?

• Exits – When to get out of a winning position ?

If you wish to subscribe – please use this link below or you may write to us at support@weekendinvesting.com in case of any queries.

We also run a dedicated telegram channel for STAIRS which you may join using the link below.
