" Investing as a way of life ".
Few days ago when I was jamming( free flowing discussion on markets and life ) with my team , if there was one line that could condense all my learnings on how to win in financial markets , this would be it. What does it mean?

@zhannamanzyk @JayaTalent Hi from pune . Mood is feeling inspired by you .

[Krishna Mundada @krishnasmundada]

I wish more people could appreciate that not everyone is meant to create monetary value add to their people , their loved ones. Understand and articulate what you bring to the table and really accentuate it.

@zhannamanzyk Large groups of people can be arrogantly and horribly wrong about something . If you have done the work to figure something out with a truth seeking unbiased mindset ... Execute on it with no care for what the world thinks .

Studying Philosophy has helped me make better investment decisions than studying finance ever could.Don't get me wrong, finance is the language of business .But great investment decisions increasingly seem to me a factor of philosophy and creativity especially in the world of AI.

Relative returns is actually the dumbest metric created by the fund management industry to use as an excuse to allow drawdowns .
A good fund manager with "not large enough" aum should not lose capital over 6/8+ months on a rolling basis.

If you truly love investing .... Your Assets under management , client list , who's betting on your calls ...... None of that matters . All of this is a by-product of one bloody simple thing .... Your ability to understand the markets one notch more than the consensus. That's it.

Don't you dare undersell the role of luck in your success . :)

I could write a book and how all this is connected to the larger goal and it's perfectly customised to me.

Core activities for me could include studying the markets through it's various disciplines such as value investing , tech analysis etc. and non core activities may include breathwork , spending time in the ocean and more.

[Krishna Mundada @krishnasmundada]

. In my case goal being " To maximise risk adjusted returns as an investor " .

[Krishna Mundada @krishnasmundada]

I also connect this with spirituality . As Dr. Joe dispenza says , authenticity is the highest frequency you can vibrate on . So you can do whatever you want as long as the goal is original, clear and not influenced by mimetic desires

[Krishna Mundada @krishnasmundada]

All core and non core activities you do should align to that one goal - maximizing risk adjusted returns . The beauty of this is you can define your own core/non core activities customized to your personality. There is no one right answer.

Great investing is a factor of great information diet. I grew up looking at elders in the family make investment decisions based on what was fed to them by news channels . You see the problem here ? As an investor we need to seek out information by cause to improve outcomes .

Always take the shot, make the decision, and follow your gut. It's better to live knowing you tried than to regret that you didn't.

I believe AI will change weightage assigned to viewership patterns from following to quality and relevance of data for an user. Which basically means you could have virtually zero following and still get views if the impact of your data is good enough.

[Krishna Mundada @krishnasmundada]

I think it's wise to start sharing your thoughts on public platforms( regardless of your following ). Very soon if not already everyone will use AI to build personality dossiers on you based on internet data . Better to share who you are by giving relevant large enough data set.

[Krishna Mundada @krishnasmundada]

You could also control the narrative on you . Depends on your intentions and objectives.
