The Good Bad and Ugly weekly review : 29 Oct 2021

Performance Update

The markets continued their correction from last week with Nifty 50, CNX200 & CNX500 returning between (-2%) to (-2.45%) while the Mid & Smallcap counters fared a little better. The markets haven been on a correction mode since the last 10 days and we would like to re-iterate that such corrections have been a common sight during strong run ups like the current one.

WeekendInvesting products have also borne the brunt of this correction. Overall, in the current FY, most of our products have been able to beat their respective benchmark indices and the consolidated performance is tabulated below.

Mi ST ATH , Mi ATH 2 , Mi MT Allcap & Mi 25 had all been closed for new subscriptions since many months. We are opening a few slots for all these Smallcases exactly at Mahurat session on 04th of November 2021 @ 6:15 pm. Kindly head to the HUB for more details about the products / performance data. You can also write to us – support@weekendinvesting.com in case you have any questions.

A SHORT COURSE to Help you Stay Calm in All Market Conditions

Usually, quick – sharp corrections like these 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.
FY21 was also phenomenal and I will let the numbers speak for themselves. You may read the Consolidated FY21 report and also go through Q1 FY 2022 & Q2 FY 2022.

We give an advance notice here on the upcoming changes in your smallcase for Monday . This advance notice can be used to ignore Monday update if there is no change. If there is a change indicated you can use the smallcase app or login to weekendinvesting.smallcase.com to see the rebalance. A back up email is sent by mid day Monday if you have not rebalanced by then and yet another one a day later. We are including LIQUIDBEES as an ADD or an EXIT count from this week onwards.

Rebalance Update

The performance for the week and the month for all the smallcases is presented below.
