quant Mutual Fund suddenly making a comeback?

Quant Mutual Fund seems to be making a pretty sharp comeback lately.

Their Quant Flexi Cap Fund is now up more than 7% over the last 1 year, while during the same period both HDFC Flexi Cap and PPFAS Flexi Cap are still in negative territory.

A few months back, a lot of people were writing off quant because of the underperformance, high volatility, and all the noise around the AMC. But in the last month especially, the recovery has been quite noticeable.

Do you think quant Mutual Fund is genuinely making a comeback?
Or is this just a temporary bounce due to current market conditions?

Flls will take huge advantage of double discount in Indian stock market..

TLDR: FIIs have sold alot and Indian stock markets are at low valuation. Rupee is getting hammered too real bad. So there will come a pivot point when FIIs go insane Indian markets due to this double discounting effect and invest heavily creating a market rally.

Hi guys,

Im a rather beginner in investing but today I got to thinking that FIls sold alot in Indian stock markets and valuations are low as P/E dicates.

Rupee has been hammered too real bad bcz of Oil conflicts and is worst performing Asian currency.

Now I read China and Japan's markets and currency movement vs USD which states that China does non dollar energy/oil trades + its tech and manufacturing sectors bring in lots of forex whereas Nikkei is one of best performing even with Yen weakening due to companies majorly earning in US dollars causing higher revenues and profits..

So I think when crude oil price declines (85-90$ maybe) as war situation stablizes and when Rupee remains stable for 2-3 weeks in a range or starts strengthening, there will come a huge pivot when FIIs go aggresive in Indian markets due to this double discounting effect creating a major market rally.

This had happened in 2013 and 2020 (Al indicated but did not research further) and I feel our Banks and IT stocks will gain very quickly - especially HDFC Bank (low valuation but big player), ICICI Bank (strong banking stock) Infosys(major dollar revenue 50-60% maybe) and few others..

Tried to kept it as short as possible after researching for past 1.5 hour. I am not giving any recommendations but only pointing out a view.

Im very curious what do people think and encourage you all to give your views on my thought.

What can the government actually do to reduce India’s obsession with gold?

Feels like the government eventually has to figure out how to make gold less attractive as an investment option for Indians.

Right now, a huge amount of money still goes into gold instead of productive assets like equities or businesses.

Some possible ways they could tackle this:

• Make equities more attractive by lowering taxes
• Give better incentives to foreign investors (FII/FDI)
• Bring back special NRI bond schemes
• Expand gold monetization schemes again
• Keep gold prices high through import duties
• Tighten gold-related regulations (though this could backfire politically)
• Improve trust and participation in financial markets so people feel safer investing outside gold

What other realistic options are there?

Wealth comes from surviving the cycle.

Spent some time thinking about what actually drives long term wealth creation beyond the usual finance advice.

Most investing visuals focus only on returns or stock picking. But after studying market cycles, investor behavior, and compounding over time, it feels like enduring wealth is really an interaction between four systems:

1. Capital

2. Time

3. Behavior

4. Edge

The interesting part is that weakness in any one of them eventually breaks the whole system.

You can have:

- capital without behavior and blow up

- edge without time and never compound

- time without capital and move too slowly

- intelligence without survivability and never stay in the game long enough

So I tried mapping investing as a systems problem instead of a returns problem. Curious where people here would disagree.

Right time to invest in SBI as its down now?

As SBI has gone down heavily on Friday by around 7%. It is India's largest bank, and it can come up easily and it can recover the loss. That is my understanding and analysis.
is it the right time to invest in SBI, or can it go down further?
Check the graph in image #SBI

Does systematic momentum investing actually work in India? Built a tool to find out [feedback welcome]

Been going down a rabbit hole on momentum investing for a while now. The research is pretty compelling, stocks that have outperformed over the past 6–12 months tend to keep outperforming for a few more months. This has been replicated across 40+ markets including India. Yet most of us still invest based on tips, news or vibes.

So I tried building something simple around this - Pick Momentum. Think of it as an experiment more than a finished product.

What it does:

  1. Scans the full Nifty 500 universe monthly
  2. Ranks stocks across 4 strategies: Classic Momentum, Risk-Adjusted Momentum (Barroso & Santa-Clara), Dual Momentum (Antonacci), and 52-Week High (George & Hwang)
  3. Outputs a 15-stock portfolio with suggested allocation and share quantities
  4. Tracks month-on-month rebalancing & tells you what to buy, hold, and exit
  5. Has a market regime filter (Nifty 50 vs 200-DMA) so you're not deploying in a downtrend

The whole rebalancing workflow takes about 10 minutes at. It's free, no login, runs on Streamlit for now - link in comments (don't want to get flagged for self-promo).

I'm also attaching a strategy guide that covers the academic research behind each strategy if anyone wants to go deeper.

Honest caveat: this is not investment advice, past performance of these strategies doesn't guarantee anything, and momentum crashes are very real. Please do your own research before putting real money behind any of this.

Curious what the community thinks. Has anyone here run systematic momentum strategies on Indian stocks? What's been your experience?
