In the Business Today Market Masters series, Nilesh Shah shares the ideal SIP strategy for long-term investors. He advises a calibrated approach—gradually investing during market corrections instead of deploying all funds at once. For the next 18–24 months, large and mid-cap funds are expected to outperform small caps. Key themes include banking, healthcare, and consumer discretionary. Beyond mutual funds, Shah recommends diversifying into AIFs, SIFs, and global equities for a balanced portfolio. However, he cautions investors to moderate return expectations, as current valuations differ from the post-COVID rally. Watch to learn how to build a resilient portfolio for steady wealth creation.
