Ramesh Damani's Key Advice: Focus 90% of Your Investments on Quality Stocks.
Ramesh Damani renowned investor shared his valuable insights on investment strategies for young investors looking to build wealth.
New investors are encouraged to adopt long-term strategies, according to market expert Ramesh Damani, who spoke at a panel in Mumbai on December 13.
He acknowledged that there will be periods when the market underperforms and losses may occur, but he urged investors to view this situation differently.
“Consider it from another angle. When I entered the market in 1989, the Sensex was approximately 1,000. Now, it stands at 80,000. Investing in quality businesses truly pays off,” he emphasized. Damani further advised younger investors, especially those new to the market, to allocate only 5-10% of their funds for trading. The remaining 90% should be invested in high-quality companies that they intend to hold for the long term, as that is where the real returns are found.
He pointed to Warren Buffett as an example of how disciplined investing can lead to wealth accumulation. “Warren Buffett has shown us that with wise money management and good profits, you can transition from middle class to millionaire within a generation. However, it’s very unlikely that you’ll achieve that through trading. Only one or two individuals out of millions might succeed in trading; most will experience some gains, some losses, and ultimately just find excitement without building wealth.”
Damani stressed that over the next 10-20 years, due to the power of compounding, you have the potential to transform your financial situation significantly from where you started.
