Channel: unknown

[5]
hi everyone welcome to today's video so
[7]
today's video is very interesting
[8]
because i am going to disclose one of
[10]
the best investment strategies that you
[12]
can implement right now to make money in
[14]
the stock market so what is that
[16]
investment strategy
[18]
it is that stop watching the news that's
[20]
it that's what the investment strategy
[22]
is but i will logically break down and i
[24]
will bring in a lot of major
[26]
macroeconomist to help you understand
[28]
this point better so i'll keep this
[30]
video short brief to the point and you
[33]
will learn a lot through this video that
[34]
how news is used to manipulate your
[36]
buying decisions why you should be
[38]
avoiding it and what are intern things
[40]
that you should keep in mind to make
[42]
decisions in the stock market so we will
[44]
do a macro analysis of the economy right
[46]
now by keeping these points in mind so
[48]
first and foremost let us understand the
[50]
most critical piece of news that has
[52]
been going around that fis have sold
[54]
like crazy in the indian stock market
[57]
and they are forever going away and they
[58]
will never come back into the economy
[60]
ever ever ever again and therefore you
[63]
should be really worried people on
[64]
twitter have gone on on a twitter rant
[66]
they have blissed us on their hand by
[67]
tweeting so much regarding all this fi
[70]
dii issue that has been going around in
[72]
the market so what is the news the news
[74]
is this that fiis have sold like crazy
[76]
in the indian stock market but let us
[78]
use some logic here and let us try to
[80]
look at some numbers and do some
[82]
rational analysis so if you take a look
[84]
at the total sales or net purchases of
[86]
fis you will see that in this current
[88]
month fiis have roughly sold 38 000
[91]
crore of asset so you need to first and
[93]
foremost understand how big or small
[95]
this number 38 000 crore is okay so we
[98]
go to cdsl's website and we take a look
[101]
at the total equity investment that fiis
[103]
have made over the years so you can look
[105]
at the entire data so we are taking a
[107]
look at the equity segment we are not
[109]
taking a look at the total so what will
[111]
you observe that in 1998 total 29
[114]
973 crore worth of assets were purchased
[117]
by fis similarly if you scroll through
[119]
all this data some years fis have been
[122]
net sellers some year they have been net
[124]
buyers so on and so forth and the total
[126]
money that has been invested by fis is
[128]
approximately 11 lakh crore so if you
[131]
take this 38 000 crore and divide it by
[133]
the total investment that fis have in
[136]
the indian stock market what will be the
[138]
ratio the ratio will roughly be three
[140]
percent so fis have only sold three
[142]
percent of their equity in the indian
[143]
stock market rest ninety seven percent
[146]
is still invested and we are only
[147]
looking at the equity segment we are not
[149]
looking at any other segment so ninety
[151]
seven percent of fi money is still stuck
[154]
in india only three percent has been
[156]
sold and people have been creating panic
[158]
news people have been creating panic
[160]
that you know what everything is going
[161]
to get destroyed this that now comes the
[163]
second key question that okay great fis
[165]
have sold three percent of the total
[167]
equity they had in the indian stock
[169]
market but where are they investing that
[170]
equity there is no clear answer right
[172]
now because even the u.s stock market is
[174]
falling crypto market is falling the
[176]
real estate market is falling so
[178]
everything is falling so the most likely
[180]
scenario is that fis have withdrawn this
[182]
money but they are sitting on cash it's
[184]
not as if that they are doing anything
[185]
with it when the macroeconomics improves
[188]
they will come back to the market they
[189]
will start investing in the emerging
[191]
economies and indian stock market is
[193]
going to skyrocket from that particular
[195]
perspective so that is the way in which
[197]
you need to analyze news because if you
[199]
start believing in all this random stuff
[202]
that you know what fias have forever
[203]
gone away this that and start believing
[206]
in all this panic you will lose a lot of
[207]
money in the stock market okay so now
[209]
comes part two of the video as to why is
[211]
it that the stock market is behaving in
[213]
such a volatile fashion it is behaving
[215]
in such a volatile fashion because feds
[218]
the u.s feds have decided to change
[220]
direction
[221]
this is dr rajan explaining this same
[223]
viewpoint so i will let you hear this
[225]
clip then i will give some commentary
[226]
around it you talked a lot about
[228]
emerging markets
[230]
what is the message for emerging markets
[231]
is this priced in for them too that this
[234]
is a fed that is serious this is a
[235]
central bank that means to do whatever
[237]
it takes apparently that's how i
[238]
interpret it to make sure inflation
[240]
stops rising and starts coming back
[242]
towards that two percent target
[244]
i i think that was the message that uh
[247]
chairman paul was trying to convey that
[249]
we will do whatever it takes he did
[251]
however say this is a world with a lot
[254]
of uncertainty
[256]
and obviously when you look at the
[257]
uncertainties around the world i mean
[259]
there is of course the china issue how
[262]
how strong will uh chinese growth be how
[265]
much will the property sector matter how
[267]
much will the chinese lockdowns matter
[268]
going forward and of course there's the
[270]
very big
[272]
uh ussr sorry this uh russia ukraine
[276]
issue uh will uh russia make a move will
[280]
oil prices go through the roof will that
[282]
tank growth i mean these are i think
[284]
very big uncertainties and of course the
[286]
viruses is still can't be uh sort of
[289]
written off so i think he said we will
[292]
be you know we will be taking that into
[294]
account but on current trends we have a
[297]
strong labor market we have reasonable
[300]
growth
[300]
and
[301]
it's time for us to raise rates and
[303]
don't
[304]
you know don't believe that we will not
[307]
work our hardest to bring on inflation
[308]
under control and essentially set the
[310]
grounds for stronger growth over the
[313]
medium term all right so dr rajan has
[315]
said three critical things on this clip
[317]
one is that he has said that feds are
[319]
changing direction now with every fed
[321]
meeting every time the feds meet they
[323]
are deciding to increase the interest
[325]
rate now whenever the interest rates are
[327]
increased in the bond market the money
[329]
flows out of the stock market into the
[331]
bond market now feds are doing and
[334]
changing this direction quite
[335]
aggressively why because the entire
[337]
world is grappling through inflation
[339]
right now including the u.s now the
[341]
important question is that okay why is
[343]
it now that these feds have started
[345]
changing the direction why not last year
[347]
because last year also inflation was
[348]
there and why can't they wait for let's
[350]
say one more year and then they start
[351]
adjusting the interest rate why is it
[353]
that feds have decided to take these
[355]
measures right now this is a very
[357]
important question to understand because
[359]
if you understand this fundamental issue
[361]
you can make a lot of money in the stock
[362]
market in the next one year so this is
[364]
what dr rajan touched upon that there
[366]
are some major challenges in the economy
[368]
right now no doubt about that that china
[370]
is dealing through its own issue the
[371]
covet problem has not been solved yet
[373]
the russia ukraine problem is still
[375]
going on but it's not as if that these
[377]
challenges will not go away they will go
[379]
away and the feds understand it right
[381]
now the sense in the market is that
[383]
there is this overall calm the demand is
[386]
coming back the employment situation is
[388]
improving and all the other macro
[390]
indicators are telling us that hey the
[392]
world is in decent shape right now
[394]
now you would say that okay if world is
[396]
in decent shape then why is it that the
[397]
stock market is falling yes because now
[400]
if everything looks calm then feds get
[402]
the mandate to start handling the
[404]
inflation issue think about it this way
[406]
that till last year there was a lot of
[408]
macroeconomic crisis that was happening
[410]
in the market there was very less
[412]
confidence people were really bothered
[414]
how will this covet situation pan out
[415]
and a bunch of other negative negative
[417]
things but now the situation looks calm
[420]
and therefore feds are getting ahead of
[422]
this inflation related problem that is
[424]
one second key thing is that up until
[426]
now feds used to believe that inflation
[428]
will be transitory in nature transitory
[431]
inflation in simple word means that the
[433]
inflation will just take care of itself
[435]
in alignment with the growth of the
[436]
world so feds need not intervene but the
[438]
new data that is coming out in the u.s
[441]
it clearly says that the inflation is
[442]
close to seven percent which is like
[444]
madness so therefore feds have to get
[446]
ahead of the curve in order to solve
[448]
this inflation problem by increasing the
[450]
interest rate very aggressively and that
[452]
is precisely the reason why stock
[454]
markets are falling now this viewpoint
[456]
has been collaborated by another major
[458]
economist he's dr paul krugman he's a
[460]
nobel prize winning economist and this
[462]
is what he had to say regarding the fed
[464]
tapering issue
[465]
many now worrying that we'll see a
[467]
policy mistake many felt that the
[469]
federal reserve was moving too slow some
[471]
are now worrying that
[473]
intentionally we could see it move too
[474]
fast slam on the brakes how are you
[477]
anticipating this very tough balancing
[480]
out that the fed has to get in terms of
[481]
still not stifle growth but really look
[483]
at these price increases head on and the
[485]
wage inflation they're in
[487]
yeah they're looking at it as fast you
[489]
know as best i know and i'm not don't
[491]
have a lot of inside information they're
[493]
looking at it pretty much the same way
[494]
the fed's version which is also my
[496]
version is that it sure looks as if the
[499]
economy has hit the speed limit
[501]
um but it's that's a call for taking
[504]
your foot off the gas pedal it's not a
[506]
call for slamming on the brakes and so
[508]
what they want to do then that's the
[510]
balancing act how do they sort of you
[513]
know get us to level off to to slow down
[516]
a little bit without throwing us into
[518]
into a recession um no guarantee that
[521]
they'll do that but they're nobody is
[523]
under any delusions here so he has used
[526]
a very interesting phrase and the phrase
[528]
goes something like this that the feds
[530]
are taking foot off the paddle not
[532]
slamming the brakes now what does this
[534]
mean so let me help you decode this so
[536]
this simply means that up until last
[537]
year feds were printing a lot of money
[539]
and they were taking monetary actions in
[541]
the economy to stabilize the economy
[543]
because since there was so much fear in
[545]
the market that you know what everything
[547]
is going to shirt all the companies are
[548]
going to share this that so feds printed
[550]
a lot of money distributed it people
[552]
went ahead started investing in stock
[554]
markets and bunch of different different
[555]
things why was this done to generate
[558]
confidence so feds up until last year
[560]
were accelerating the paddle the feds
[562]
were pushing the monetary policy in such
[564]
a way that they were accelerating the
[565]
entire economy now since the economy is
[568]
back on track they have decided to take
[570]
off their food of the paddle there will
[572]
not be any more quantitative easing so
[574]
to say or money printing so to say and
[576]
feds are going to be hawkish in terms of
[578]
monitoring the inflation that has been
[580]
created due to their past actions so
[582]
what does this second part mean the
[584]
second part in simple word means that
[586]
it's not as if that feds are going to
[588]
increase this interest rate like crazy
[590]
people no they are not going to do that
[592]
they are just not going to accelerate
[593]
the economy anymore and they are going
[595]
to monitor the situation and let it play
[597]
out that is simply what they are going
[599]
to do its not as if they are going to go
[601]
crazy and increase the interest rates
[603]
this is the key fear that is driving the
[605]
volatility in the stock market because
[607]
everyone is very bothered that what feds
[609]
might do feds according to dr krugman is
[612]
not going to make such dramatic moves so
[614]
now let's go back to dr rajan and let us
[616]
understand the final part of the video
[618]
what is the way ahead from a macro point
[620]
of view and let us listen to what dr
[622]
rajan has to say
[623]
the markets aren't building in
[626]
the normal sort of fed reaction to this
[629]
kind of inflation
[631]
and that could mean one of a number of
[634]
things
[635]
maybe growth falls off a cliff as the
[637]
fed raises interest rates i doubt that
[639]
but that's one possibility the other is
[642]
financial markets fall and then the fed
[644]
sort of has to back off because the
[646]
wealth effects the loss of confidence
[648]
all that
[649]
essentially uh causes activity to slow
[653]
at this point i don't think the fed sort
[655]
of
[656]
believes each of either of these two is
[659]
a huge risk
[660]
and wants to act appropriately but i
[662]
think this is one of the reasons we are
[665]
in a new world the fed is giving itself
[668]
some room to react if necessary
[671]
so dr rajan has given an excellent
[672]
viewpoint he simply says that if the
[674]
financial markets fall if financial
[676]
market falls sustainably then feds will
[679]
have to back off so why this situation
[682]
has reached let us first quickly discuss
[684]
that so essentially what is happening
[686]
right now is that feds are very clear
[688]
that you know what inflation situation
[689]
is going to persist and we need to deal
[692]
with it and we are increasing the
[693]
interest rate every time this action is
[695]
taken the stock market will fall but
[697]
feds are also very careful that we can't
[699]
overplay this situation it's not as if
[701]
that we can go crazy and increase the
[703]
interest rate so much that the entire
[705]
stock market falls sustainably in such a
[707]
situation there will be entire panic
[709]
that will play out and investors might
[711]
leave the stock market for a little
[712]
while and that will be bad for the
[714]
economy so feds are very very careful in
[717]
terms of balancing this game increasing
[719]
the interest rate and not letting the
[720]
stock market fall too much this is a
[722]
very important point please keep this in
[724]
mind this is a trick that you must
[725]
understand about the stock market if you
[727]
combine all these different facts so far
[730]
what is it that you can derive so what
[731]
you can clearly understand is that we
[733]
are moving towards a sideways market it
[736]
is becoming clearer and clearer with
[738]
time every time the world moves toward a
[740]
slightly more peaceful resolution
[742]
peaceful situation feds are going to
[744]
increase the interest rate that will
[745]
bring the stock market down but they
[748]
will be very careful not to let a crash
[750]
happen so again the stock market will
[751]
not crash crash per se there will be
[753]
minor corrections and this situation is
[756]
likely to persist for some time so what
[758]
is it that you and i as investors should
[760]
do so number one we should not chase the
[763]
stock market for example when the stock
[764]
market is making new highs please be
[767]
very mindful in terms of undertaking
[769]
bulk purchases it might be a bad time to
[771]
purchase because we are likely to see a
[773]
lot of minor corrections in the stock
[775]
market going forward so it would make a
[778]
lot of sense to be patient and sensible
[780]
in this stock market number one please
[782]
don't act on news be rational in terms
[784]
of your analysis don't get manipulated
[787]
by news don't just sell all your stocks
[789]
because fis are selling they are doing
[791]
it for some very specific reasons so do
[793]
that data analysis number two purchase
[796]
stocks in small small amounts and
[797]
usually purchase stocks when the stock
[799]
market has fallen don't purchase bulk
[801]
stocks when the stock market is rising
[803]
because there might be numerous
[804]
corrections ahead of us so i hope you
[806]
enjoyed the video please give it a
[808]
thumbs up and i will see you tomorrow
[829]
you
