from a longer term point of view.
Nifty Weekly
**Some charts below use moving
averages. Now, the prices are far below these averages, so we face 2 choices:
Either we wait for price to catch up
to the MA’s – then we might miss out on some solid gains.
Either the MA’s catch up to price –
then we get saved from further losses or a frustrating range bound move.**
Chart 1. Strategy based on Nifty TRI
– is in exit mode and I am in liquid-bees. Bond strategy is still in buy mode
and I am holding a 10Y bond fund. If Green line in charts below is up means buy
mode and green line at 0 means exit mode. Portfolio return since 4th
November (go live) is -13.05% and current drawdown is 15.33% compared to Nifty
ETF return of -23.93% with a current drawdown of 26.74%.
Chart 2 Nifty total returns/10 year Bond index ratio is BELOW its 40-week MA &
momentum has shifted to Bonds, both indicating longer term outperformance of Bonds
vs Nifty.

and Banks at the bottom.
