Equities, while being volatile over short periods of time, tend to be a prudent investment over longer time horizons

Over the long run, equity returns tend to track underlying fundamentals and are determined by the following factors:

Long term growth of the economy

Growth in corporate earnings

These components explain nearly all of the stock market returns over extended holding periods.

Stable financial & regulatory framework

Daily Rolling Returns of NIFTY 50 (% CAGR)

As can be seen from the table below, variability of equity returns reduces as time horizon increases. In the below table, daily rolling returns of NIFTY 50 over the past 2 decades have been considered. Based on past outcomes - for an investment horizon of 1 year, probability of negative returns is 29%; however if investment horizon increases to 10 years – probability of negative returns drops to 0.

Markets recovered sharply in 2QCY20 led by sharp recovery in FPI inflows & increased participation by retail investors / HNIs. Domestic mutual fund inflows decelerate.

FY21 P/E is less relevant due to significant dislocation of profits expected in several sectors. NIFTY 50 (~11,400 level, 31-Aug-20) is trading at FY22 P/E of 18.6 times

(Source: Kotak Insti Equities)

Price / Book Value, Marketcap / GDP are better measures in current situation. Prevailing Price / Book Value , Marketcap / GDP are near long term averages (refer adjacent chart 1 & chart 2)

Low interest rates, reversion to normalcy, FPI inflows are supportive of a positive outlook

Significant impact on corporate profits in FY21 likely; however, minimal impact expected on intrinsic values of most businesses.

Markets recovered sharply in 2QCY20 led by sharp recovery in FPI flows & increased participation by retail investors / HNIs.

Prevailing Price / Book Value , Marketcap / GDP are near long term averages

Historically, sharp corrections in Indian markets triggered by global events were followed by good returns over medium to long term.

10 year NIFTY returns are ~7.7% CAGR as of 31-Aug-20. Historically NIFTY returns below 10% CAGR for a 10 year period have been followed by good returns over next 3, 5 and 10 years

Significant increase in Covid-19 cases in India & across the world, sharp rise in oil prices, sharp escalation in border dispute with China, etc. are key risks in near term

Why Debt?

While Equities aim to provide capital appreciation over a longer time horizon, Debt aims to provide better stability to a portfolio

Equities do generate higher returns than Debt over the long term. However, Debt is less volatile as compared to Equities (Refer chart below)

Interest Rates Outlook

RBI and major Central banks likely to continue with accommodative stance and low rates

Uncertainty over global growth outlook remains due to disruption and risk of second wave of COVID-19 infections

Commodity prices likely to be range bound given the weak growth outlook in near term

Unconventional tools used by RBI to improve transmission of rate cuts (Operation TWIST, LTROs, Targeted LTROs)

Muted credit growth vs. deposit growth; Ample global and domestic liquidity

Excess SLR securities holding of PSU banks

Large supply of dated securities by Central and State Governments

Near term inflation likely to remain above RBI’s target of 4%

Economic activity showing sign of recovery and likely to improve sequentially

Schemes with short to medium duration offer better risk adjusted returns, in our judgement

Factors supporting lower yields Factors opposing lower yields

Rate Cut No Change Rate Hike

Gold and Low Interest Rates

Economic fallout of COVID-19 has hampered growth prospects globally

To stimulate economic growth, Central banks around the world have further reduced policy rates ,from already subdued levels

As can be seen from the chart 1, 87% of Major central Banks (covered by BIS) have cut policy rates in 2020 – the highest level since global financial crisis

Chart 2 indicates that increase in negative yielding debt globally has increased the popularity of Gold .

Global economic slowdown and low interest rates increase the popularity of Gold as a safe haven asset.

Historical returns tend to bias investors towards the asset class that has performed well recently.

Recency bias could result in investors chasing momentum and picking an asset class at an inopportune time.

Over the last 23 fiscal years equity, debt and gold have outperformed each other at different times.

Correlation and diversification

Asset correlation is a measure of how asset classes move in relation to one another over a period of time. Correlation coefficient can range from -1 to +1. When assets move in the same direction at the same time, they are considered to be positively correlated. When one asset tends to move up when the another goes down, the two assets are considered to be negatively correlated.

Daily 1 year rolling returns since Apr’98 exhibit negative correlation between Equity, Debt and Gold.

Low/negative correlation between these asset classes creates a strong case for diversification.

Asset Allocation refers to distributing your investible surplus across various asset classes according to risk tolerance, risk appetite and investment time frame.

Each asset class behaves differently across different economic cycles (Refer Page Number 12)

It reduces dependency on a single asset class to generate returns.

Mitigates volatility of returns of portfolio (Refer Page Number 16)

What is Asset Allocation and why is it needed?

Why Asset allocation is crucial ?

Determine financial goals

Ascertain risk appetite

Determine optimal asset allocation

Invest in different asset classes directly (or) Invest in a hybrid mutual fund

Rebalance the portfolio periodically

How can investors implement asset allocation?

Power of Asset Allocation

How the numbers stack up?Gold and Equity performed better than Debt in terms of returns while debt had the lowest volatility

Yes, a combination of Equity, Debt and Gold (65%,10%,25% respectively) would have yielded returns higher than individual asset class returns and that too, with lower volatility, thereby underlining the importance of asset class diversification.

Let’s consider growth of an investment of Rs 1,00,000 from 1st April 1998 to 31st August 2020, along with the volatility of returns over that period

Data used for asset classes :Equity -NIFTY50, Debt-NIFTY 10 year benchmark G Sec, Gold-Spot Rate INR/10 Grams.Monthly portfolio rebalancing assumed. Standard Deviation % of Daily returns considered. The above analysis is based on backtesting of the above mentioned asset classes. HDFC Mutual Fund/AMC is not guaranteeing future returns of these asset classes. The scheme invests in gold related instruments and hence is impacted by the price of gold.

Why Multi Asset Fund ?

Investors exhibit a recency bias and invest in recent outperformers

Lack of diversification leads to higher volatility of returns

Asset class returns vary over economic cycles

Timing the market for various asset classes is difficult

Multi Asset Fund could be considered as an option to meet diversified asset allocation needs of investors.

# 90% NIFTY 50 Hybrid Composite Debt 65:35 Index + 10% Domestic Price of Gold. ## NIFTY 50 (Total Returns Index). Past performance may or may not be sustained in the future. Returns greater than 1-year period are compounded annualized (CAGR). Performance of dividend option under the schemes for the investors would be net of distribution tax, if any. N.A. Not Available. The Scheme formerly, a debt oriented hybrid fund, has undergone change in Fundamental attributes w.e.f. May 23, 2018 and become a multi asset fund investing in equities, debt and gold related instruments. Accordingly, the Scheme’s benchmark has also changed. Hence, the performance of the Scheme from inception till May 22, 2018 may not strictly be comparable with those of the new benchmark and the additional benchmark. Scheme performance may not strictly be comparable with that of its Additional Benchmark in view of hybrid nature of the scheme where a portion of scheme’s investments are made in debt instruments and gold related instruments. Different plans viz. Regular Plan and Direct Plan have a different expense structure. The expenses of the Direct Plan under the Scheme will be lower to the extent of the distribution expenses / commission charged in the Regular Plan. Load is not taken into consideration for computation of performance. The scheme is co-managed by Mr. Amit Ganatra (Equities) since June 12, 2020, Mr. Anil Bamboli (Debt) since August 17, 2005, Mr. Krishan Kumar Daga (Gold) since May 23, 2018 and Mr. Arun Agarwal (Arbitrage) since August 24, 2020.

Not Available. ̂ The scheme is co-managed by Mr. Amit Ganatra from May 21, 2020 & Mr. Anil Bamboli from June 28, 2014. On account of difference in type of scheme, asset allocation, investment strategy, inception dates, the performance of these schemes is strictly not comparable. Performance of close-ended Schemes is not strictly comparable with that of open-ended schemes since the investment strategy for close-ended schemes is primarily buy andhold whereas open ended schemes are actively managed.
