We believe, that the investor in the age bracket of 35-40 years should allocate at least 70-75 percent of his portfolio into equities/MFs, 20-25% in fixed income and the balance should be in cash.
Global headwinds, rise in crude oil prices, political stability, earnings not catching up, or just plain old profit booking are some of the key factors which can lead to volatility in equity markets.
The idea is to make a portfolio which can weather out all storms. Normally, it is a difficult thing to achieve because equities are not risk-free and external factors will impact your portfolio in one way or another.
Investors should focus on making a portfolio which should fall less than the market and outperform when the market starts rising. Well, a brilliant idea but a difficult thing to achieve.
To make such a portfolio, it should have stocks marketcap themes and across sectors to achieve benefits of diversification. There are many factors, both micro and macro, which would be important to consider when investors are planning to make a portfolio that can weather all storms.
Our macro research looks at the effect of various cycles (industry, interest rate, commodity, exchange rate etc.), regulation, Govt. policy impact, top-down drivers, evolving themes etc.
Our management quality research looks at the ability of managements to deliver outperformance irrespective of the environment or cycles - gain market share, create new growth opportunities, build new efficiencies, being ahead of the curve on changes, reduce its cyclicality, have shock absorbers, balance sheet improvement etc.
The report further added that they look at the management who can ‘walked the talk’ for us to gain confidence that the outlook is not an extension of their past. The portfolio bias has shifted from growth and cyclical to either value or quality defensives.

How should one construct their portfolio?
Investors should be guided by their goals because if you are investing for the long run, equity still remains the top priority. At the same time, allocating a small part to fixed income is always justified for a variety of reasons.
We believe, that the investor in the age bracket of 35-40 years should allocate at least 70-75 percent of his portfolio into equities/MFs, 20-25% in fixed income and the balance should be in cash.
“For first-time investors with a corpus of Rs 10 lakh, it is advisable to invest larger share in mutual funds (i.e. 66-75 percent). For financially savvy investors, we would suggest the person has a 50:50 mix between direct equities and mutual funds.
