Keep Investing in SIP; Let the Markets achieve New Highs!

On 26th April 2017 the BSE S&P Sensex closed above the 30,000 mark for the first time in its history, and the Nifty scaled a lifetime high as well. Benchmarks Sensex and Nifty finished at lifetime highs for the third day in a row on 17th May 2017, due to the robust buying momentum triggered by the early onset of monsoon and strong economic growth. The BSE Sensex rose by 76.17 points, or 0.25% to end at 30,658.77, while the broader Nifty finished at 9,525.75, up 13.50 points, or 0.14%. Markets remain volatile thereafter, today (22nd May 2017), BSE Sensex opened on a positive note and was in a mood to achieve new highs however, it closed 100 points up at 30,570. Markets may achieve new highs in near future but how will it benefit you?

As an investor, very important questions could arise in your mind as markets are at all-time highs…. Will it move further upward? Is it the right time to exit (book profits and wait for markets to correct so that you can start buying shares at a lower price level)? Or should you hold on to your investments and continue as per your long term financial plan?

When the markets attain new highs, you should remain invested. Remember that you should exit when you have achieved your financial goals. The entry and exit from your investments should not depend on the market level. You can start investing in the market at any time and have patience till the time your goal is achieved.

Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is one of the most preferred ways to invest in a mutual fund wherein you pay a set amount every month/quarter/half year for a set tenure. For example, if you take an SIP of Rs. 500 (minimum) for 1 year on January 1st, 2017, you will be paying Rs. 500 per month for the next 12 months. It helps you to smoothen out the market fluctuations and therefore investments are at a low cost over a period.
