Rakesh Jhunjhunwala Advice for Stock Market Investments

Invest in stock like gold or real estate

First advice given by Rakesh Jhunjhunwala is to invest in stock market like gold or real estate. When we invest in gold or in real estate, we never think about return as we know that it will defiantly give good return in days to come. We quietly sit on this investments, but when it comes to stock market investment we react in different manner.

We challenge our own investment decision. Although we have taken informed decision to buy fundamentally strong stock, we start checking performance of stock from date of purchase. Downward movement of this stock make us anxious. We start thinking that whether we have done mistake in selecting this stock.

Rakesh Jhunjhunwala advice that invest in stock if you are absolutely convinced about it. Once you invest in stock don’t get prejudice with temporary events. Stay with stock for long-term. Long term investment always pays.

It reminds me very good saying about valuable and physical assets

-Uber, the world’s largest taxi company owns no vehicles.

-Facebook the world’s most popular media creates no content.

-Alibaba, the most valuable retailer has no inventory.

-Airbnb the world’s largest accommodation provider owns no real estate.

-Whatsapp with 3 Billion messages a day does not own servers.

Disruptive, innovative and collaborative consumption is shifting the lines of the economy. Create valuable assets and not always physical assets.

Rakesh Jhunjhunwala gave detail about stock. Next question asked by girl was how much return is expected out of it. Rakesh Jhunjhunwala said that it will double in next three years (26% CAGR). Girl was not happy with 26% return.

Rakesh Jhunjhunwala explained that we should set realistic target while purchasing stock. If in other assets class returns go up to 10% in equity it can go up to 18-20%. He further explained that if he is able to make 18% return on portfolio, he feel like king and if he makes 24% return, he feel like emperor.

Trader and Investor are different
