Complex problems are made up of several smaller manageable sub-problems. It’s all about sticking to basics.

Backstory

As a teenager, I came across several people who knew the stock prices of 100 companies but may not the business for most of them. While most people would curse equity markets, some would feel it’s the best platform for wealth creation. It was completely confusing, until I came across this priceless quote – “Price is what you pay, value is what you get.” It was now amply clear that stock price movement cannot just be random. There must be some logic to it. This motivated to pursue career in capital market post qualifying as a CA. It has been over 18 years into the equity markets now and I am still learning.

In my 18 years of journey in equity markets, I got a chance to work with several sharp minds in the industry across multiple organisations. For the first 11 years of my career, I have worked as an institutional equity research analyst across organisations like Edelweiss, Espirito Santo and HDFC Securities amongst others. In 2018, I started my investing journey on the PMS/ AIF side. In these 18 years, I have spent time in analysing companies, meeting industry experts, and doing on-ground channel checks to understand the basics of several industries/ businesses. I strongly believe that research is the core to investing, which helps one to maintain conviction when markets go through various cycles.
