i hold Axis blue chip MF 5700 UNITS since from Nov 2019 . I have noticed the fund is underperforming compare to other peers. Can you please suggest whether I want to hold this fund for some more time or now swift over to sone other funds. If so please advice with funds to Invest now. Thank You

Ans: If you believe the fund's underperformance is not temporary and is affecting your portfolio's growth, you may consider diversifying or switching to a better-performing fund. However, before making any decisions, it's crucial to assess your investment horizon, risk tolerance, and financial goals. A Certified Financial Planner (CFP) can provide personalized advice tailored to your situation, recommend suitable alternative funds, and guide you on the potential implications of switching funds to make informed decisions.

Hi experts. should MF continue with axis bluechip fund and axis esg fund which ? If exit then what should be other MF as conservatives Risk takers.
Ans: Deciding whether to continue or exit mutual funds involves careful consideration of various factors. Let's delve into your options.

Axis Bluechip Fund and Axis ESG Fund are both reputable choices with distinct investment approaches. Axis Bluechip Fund focuses on large-cap stocks with a track record of consistent performance, while Axis ESG Fund integrates environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into its investment decisions, aligning with sustainable principles.

If you're contemplating exiting these funds, it's essential to reassess your investment objectives and risk tolerance. For conservative investors, you might explore alternatives like diversified equity funds with a history of stable returns, such as Mirae Asset Large Cap Fund or ICICI Prudential Bluechip Fund. These funds typically invest in established companies with lower volatility.

Additionally, debt funds can offer stability for conservative investors. Consider options like HDFC Corporate Bond Fund or SBI Magnum Ultra Short Duration Fund, which invest in high-quality debt instruments with relatively lower risk.

Before making any decisions, consult with a Certified Financial Planner to evaluate your portfolio holistically and ensure alignment with your financial goals. They can provide personalized recommendations based on your risk profile and investment horizon.

Remember, mutual fund investments are subject to market risks, so it's essential to diversify and regularly review your portfolio to maintain a balanced approach.
