The market has witnessed the fastest fall in its history. Many stocks are available at extremely attractive or cheap valuations currently in the market.

Is it the right time to cut off long-term laggards from your mutual fund portfolio?

Many mutual fund investors reckon that being in a scheme with a better track record would help them to make up for the losses when the market starts reviving. Is it a right strategy?

Coronavirus scare: Should you stop SIP, switch to debt, invest a lumpsum...

Don't invest just because the markets are down. Invest because you were underweight on equity in your overall investments. Don't take any decision in panic - be it selling or buying equities.

No emergency corpus? Now is the time to build it

An emergency corpus is critical in uncertain times like this even if it means individuals have to move from equity to debt for the moment. Once an emergency corpus is in place, investors could restart their equity SIPs.

Do not invest a lumpsum in the market at this point, says Jinesh Gopani of Axis Mutual Fund

The global trade is going to remain under pressure for some time because of the virus threat. As the pandemic has moved to Europe, the issue has become larger.
