NIFTY has so far corrected by almost 13% from its most recent all-time-high. And yet, there is no way to predict with certainty if the market correction we have seen so far is only a prelude to a larger market crash that lies ahead, or if this on-going bout of market volatility is now close to an end and will very likely pave the way for a melt-up very soon going forward from here. Even the Union Budget that was presented by the Finance Minister on 1-Feb-2025 and was replete with market-friendly tax concessions for middle class taxpayers and investors has failed to cheer up the markets (NIFTY in fact closed slightly in the negative on the day the budget was presented).

So what should one position one’s investment portfolio at this stage? Being fully invested in stocks at this stage comes with the risk of a big loss should markets continue to correct steeply from here, and being overwhelmingly in cash poses the risk of missing out on the upside, should markets turn around and start to rally going forward. At the same time, getting the call right on which way equity markets are headed from here can create stupendous wealth. Getting the market call right (or wrong) at this stage can quite literally make or break an investment portfolio.

But is there a way to protect our investment portfolio from the risk of our market call ( market outlook) going wrong? This is exactly what Idiscuss in this video. So do watch this video till the end, because without a mechanism to hedge against the risk of our market call going wrong, we are probably in a game of poker, rather than in the game of investing!
