When a person goes through a bad time, everyone pulls them down more

When a stock goes down, everyone writes it off

If the person is capable and the stock is actually good, this is where the biggest opportunity gets created

Support them and experience compounding :)

Brilliant lines from @unseenvalue

..Markets do not punish you for being wrong. They punish you for staying wrong. Every investment thesis eventually collides with reality. A cost advantage erodes. Customer behaviour changes. A management team that once allocated capital well begins chasing growth for its own sake.

The question is never whether your thesis was right on day one. It is whether you notice, quickly enough, the day it stops being right.

Most portfolios do not suffer their biggest damage from poor ideas. They suffer from good ideas that were never re-examined.

(now my version: IF you or your fund manager continues to buy the same stocks again and again. examine whether it is conviction or just plain unwillingness to re-examine the idea).

The best investors are often the dead ones.

They never interrupted compounding.

I’m in love with this sentence:

“The more delusionally optimistic you are, the more life rewards you.”

[Varinder Bansal 🇮🇳 @vbomkara]

Greatness does not come out of intelligence; it comes from character. Character is not formed out of smart people: it is formed out of people who have suffered.

Suffering is part of the wealth-creation journey — and a very important part of building character.

"Your Demat statement belongs to the market.
Your bank statement belongs to you."

The rise you saw was a paper profit.
The fall you see today is a paper loss.

Nothing is real… until you sell.

Yes, my portfolio is down too. And worrying won’t raise prices. It will only disturb your peace, your mood, and even your family life.

Yes, this is a crisis. But it is also training.
Markets don’t build wealth without first building your temperament.

In my investing journey, I have seen many such phases. I was worried then too...I am human. But I learned to live with these moments instead of reacting to them.

And every time the cycle turned, every new bull phase took my portfolio to new highs.

These situations are not here to break you… they are here to build you.
They are what make you a seasoned long-term investor forever.

You have to win over your mind.
Events create uncertainty… but fear is shaped within.
Learn to observe it, understand it, and guide it, because you are not your mind.

Stay patient. Stay aware. Stay grounded.
Because in the end, it’s not the market… it’s your temperament that creates wealth. ✌️

The power of compounding belongs not only to professionals.
It belongs to every disciplined citizen willing to think long term.

Not everyone can fly a plane. But everyone has the right to fly.

Similarly, not everyone can analyse stocks.
But everyone deserves the opportunity to benefit from the power of compounding.

Consider this:
Suppose a person invests Rs. 10,000 per month for 20 years.
If the post-tax return from an FD is 5%, the corpus grows to about Rs 41 lakh.
If the post-tax return from equity is 10%, the corpus grows to about Rs. 76 lakh.

Same person. Same monthly investment. Same discipline. Same 20 years. Yet the difference is Rs 35 lakh.

The difference between 5% and 10% is not 5%.
It is the difference between Rs 41 lakh and Rs. 76 lakh.

Yes, higher returns come with volatility.

But for a disciplined long-term investor, volatility is not merely a risk - it is also the price paid for the possibility of superior long term compounding.

Volatility is the price of admission. Compounding is the reward.

A nation prospers when its citizens don't just save money.
They own a share in the businesses that create wealth.

Equity investing may not be for everyone.

But the power of compounding and business ownership should belong to everyone.

Shankar is a global investor and has many avenues of investment.
I am the Indian frog in the Indian well and I feel that a bull market is already under way in India.
Generally we have never lost money buying Indian stocks in a currency crisis.
Times change, wars end, sentiment changes and great opportunities go away…I can see a massive tech and venture capital ecosystem building in India fruits of which will be seen in times to come.
Indians are a skilled people and we will see many entrepreneurs build many great cos and offer opportunities for investors to become rich.

Signs of Bottom

Bottom is not made when we try to buy some more or switch one name to another.

Bottom is made when we sell a good chunk of our PF, close all satellite positions and even sell (partly or fully), our highest conviction stock.

@Iamsamirarora @Flipkart Would love to receive one signed by the real alpha — you, not the author 😊
Looking forward to adding it to my investing shelf!

Risk in the market is not about losing money. The real risk is time frame.
