[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] In God we trust, everybody else brings data to the table. It was originally framed by renowned statistician Dr. W. Edwards Deming. But in India, it was popularized by Mr. Narayana Murthy, founder of Infosys - indicating that while faith has its place, but in the world of markets and business - data beats noise. There is a popular saying in the West that creates lots of noise when the month of May starts: “Sell in May and go away.” The belief is that stock markets tend to underperform from May to October and do better from November to April. Since this is an age old adage nobody questions it. But does it hold true today? Let’s dive deep into data and figure out. ETMarkets.com From the above data, it’s evident that despite the second half of the year being packed with major festivals and events, the six-month period from November to April delivered modest average returns of just 4%, with only 6 out of 10 years ending in the green.

[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] The Indian stock market has had a wild ride in 2024 with the headline indices Sensex and Nifty flipping up and down. The market began the year on a subdued note, but then spiralled downwards reacting to announcements from Donald Trump. But then, that is not all. There were also short rallies in between, again completely driven by what was coming out of the US. In 2025 so far, Sensex was down 2% and the Nifty index fell just over 1%. President Donald Trump’s unpredictable moves, like slapping tariffs on trading partners one day and pausing them the next, have left traders and investors scratching their heads. No one is sure how the rest of the year is going pan out. Despite this chaos, experts say there’s still money to be made if investors play it smart. Here are five ways in which they can do so. Markets reacting to Trump's flip-flops There is a sense that investing right now can feel daunting. The market jumps or dips based on headl...

[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] With December so far delivering Scrooge-like returns in an otherwise stellar year for U.S. stocks, investors hope the tail end of 2024 offers some holiday cheer, but warn of potential headwinds. The benchmark S&P 500 is up more than 23% for 2024, even after a major stumble this week, and Wall Street has historically often enjoyed a strong annual close. Since 1969, the last five trading days of the year combined with the first two of the following year have yielded an average S&P 500 gain of 1.3%, a period known as the "Santa Claus Rally," according to the Stock Trader's Almanac. But this year, there are signs Santa Claus may disappoint. The S&P 500 on Wednesday suffered its biggest one-day drop since August after the Federal Reserve caught investors off guard by signaling fewer-than-expected interest rate cuts in 2025. The market also looks less healthy beneath the surface: Eight of the 11 S&P 500 sectors ...

[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] The stock market has witnessed a remarkable rally since the COVID-19 pandemic, with many stocks and indices surpassing analyst-set target prices. This trend underscores the limitations of rigid target-based strategies in equity investing. As markets are dynamic and influenced by a plethora of macroeconomic and microeconomic factors, investors must adopt a flexible and adaptive approach. A reactive strategy, rather than a fixed target-based one, can help investors navigate the market's complexities and optimize returns. Notably, in 2024, the S&P 500 outperformed Wall Street strategists' average price targets by over 25%. Setting targets is undoubtedly a good practice, but rigid adherence can sometimes lead to missed opportunities. Exiting from the investment solely because it has achieved your pre-decided target is like declaring the batsman just because he scored the expected century but the fact is he is in good form and migh...

[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] Domestic markets are in a correction phase with benchmark indices, Nifty and Sensex, falling around 10% from the peak. The weakness in second quarter results and sustained outflow of foreign funds weighed on the sentiments.
