ETMarkets Investors’ Guide: Amid interest rate risk, which debt fund should you buy? | The Economic Times Podcast

0
Welcome to ETMarkets’ Investors Guide, a show about asset classes, market trends, and investment opportunities. This is Bhaskar Dutta.

Market has been extremely volatile in the last couple of weeks due to the fallout of the war in Europe. Many quality stocks have fallen 20-50 per cent. Amid this, the biggest question is what should you buy, or even buy at all?

Moreover, if equities have been scary, debt funds are also looking at a gloom as interest rates are going to rise, which is never a good news for most debt funds. That is why we also saw outflow from them in February.

ETMarkets’ Shubham Raj caught up with Arvind Chari, CIO, Quantum Advisors to understand what one should buy right now and which debt funds can help plug the holes in your portfolio.
Listen in!

Q1. Market has seen some buying this week. Have we found a bottom?

Q2. Is the geopolitical issue in Europe priced in? What else can derail markets ahead?

Q3. We saw a lot of outflow in debt funds last month. How big of a risk is the evolving interest rate for investors? What kind of debt funds/bonds should be preferred?

Q4. A lot of quality stocks are down 20-50% from their 52-week highs, but we can’t buy them all. What sectors or kind of stocks would you prefer?

Q5. With raw material prices shooting up, do you think it will hit the earnings of companies hard?

Thank you Shubham and Mr Chari for a very intriguing conversation.

That’s all in this week’s special podcast. Do keep checking this space for more interesting content and take time out to follow our market podcasts twice every day. Stay safe and Happy Weekend!
