Q2 FY24 has continued the momentum from the first quarter but at a slower pace. The index rallied in two out of three months of this quarter and briefly stayed above 20000 mark to make an All Time High at 20222, nearly a 1000 points higher than the highest point of last quarter.

The global headwinds in the form of the troika, USD strengthening, US yields going up and FII sales have continued to remain strong rather worsening in this quarter. There continues to remain a spectre global recession, IT slowing down in CY24 and lack of overseas fund flow. However, India has incredibly sustained all these narratives and become a part of the very few countries that have seen an All Time High in 2023. An all-time high occurrence is an important parameter in the journey of a stock or an Index as the probability of continuation becomes very high for the ensuing period.

Nifty gained over 2.3% this quarter but the real action continued to be concentrated in the larger markets. Smallcap 250 and Midcap400 index gained 16% and 14.0% respectively.

For Q2FY24 within Weekendinvesting strategies notably, Mi20 was up 28.2%, Mi35 up 23.2%, Mi50 at 20.5% and Mi ATH 2 at 20.1%. All other strategies performed in line or beat the respective benchmarks.

Our belief in the concept of BBC (Bhav Bhagwan Che), a Gujarati saying which means that “Price is God” helps us follow the markets in a non-discretionary manner and we allow the markets to do the talking. This has been our sole mantra in the last 7+ years that we have been offering these services. Our non-discretionary approach at times can lag the markets when markets make trend changes but over time, we have seen this perform much better than many other styles of investing. The historical CAGR returns experienced by clients and the resulting thousands of testimonials are proof to this claim.

The forecast for next few quarters as it stands today is that of some consolidation in broader market and India will do well in maintaining its pole position amongst global markets given that all projections point to it emerging as the worlds’ fastest growing market.

At Weekendinvesting, we will continue to walk our established chosen path of following our strategies to the Tee. All our strategies have a self-healing and self-correcting approach and will come around strongly after any drawdown period that we may face. The whole setup is like a high probability winning machine provided you give the strategies adequate time to heal.

This last quarter we have taken many new initiatives at Weekendinvesting.

• We had the first Weekendinvesting Hangout meet in Delhi with was well received. We intend to meet in a new city every quarter.
• We started the WI App that more than 5000 people are using already for its super content and an educational US strategy available there. The online chat system on the app has reduced the already quick response time for all weekendinvestors and the clincher has been the online appointment system where you can have a one on one zoom call with our team to discuss anything.
• We have started a daily newsletter that goes out to a large audience as well. In this quarter we intend to focus more on further smoothening any processes that currently have any friction, refresh our product portfolio, and plan to upgraded our content delivery through YouTube and other channels to meet our target to educate youngsters on importance of saving, investing and having a planned approach.
  

We strongly believe in the long-term India story and we believe that momentum strategies will continue to do very well in this India scenario of too much capital chasing too less paper in the ensure that we are riding the winners when it is favorable to us and defending our position when it isn’t.

All the best.
