Should I consider removing JM Flexi Cap from my investment portfolio?

Ans: Assuming that you have equal investments in all the five funds, then 60% of your investments are in one AMC which is a new one with not much of a track record. This is a big risk that you are taking by concentrating so much in one AMC. There are two more aspects of this risk:-
1. Quant works largely on momentum created by ‘quant’ factors which is a very risky strategy and I do not know whether it will be good for a long-term portfolio as it is a new way of managing entire funds.
2. I can also see that, because Quant funds have performed well in the near past, you have filled your portfolio with it. This too is risky since your portfolio will grow not based on pats returns but future ones. You need to do much more study for making a robust portfolio.

Last point is about the overall risk of your portfolio. Your 100% of the portfolio is of quant strategy funds and small-and-mid cap funds. Be very sure that you want your portfolio to take such a high risk.

Ans: Your portfolio appears to have a mix of flexi-cap, mid-cap, and tax-saving equity funds, providing diversification across different market segments. However, it's essential to periodically review your investments to ensure they align with your financial goals, risk tolerance, and market conditions. Here are a few considerations:

Diversification: Assess whether your portfolio is adequately diversified across different asset classes, sectors, and market capitalizations. Consider adding exposure to other sectors or asset classes if needed to reduce concentration risk.
Performance: Evaluate the performance of each fund relative to its benchmark index and peers. If any fund consistently underperforms or deviates significantly from its investment mandate, consider replacing it with a better-performing alternative.
Tax Efficiency: Since you have a tax-saving equity fund in your portfolio, ensure it aligns with your tax planning goals and provides adequate tax benefits. Evaluate its performance and tax efficiency compared to other tax-saving options.
Risk Management: Consider your risk tolerance and investment horizon when making changes to your portfolio. Ensure that the overall risk level of your investments is in line with your comfort level and financial objectives.
Professional Advice: Consult with a certified financial planner or advisor who can provide personalized recommendations based on your financial situation and goals.
Ultimately, the decision to change or maintain your portfolio depends on your individual circumstances and market outlook. Regular review and adjustment can help ensure that your investments remain aligned with your long-term financial goals.

Ans: Your portfolio is well diversified across various categories and designed for long-term horizon.

Currently, you have three mid-cap funds in your portfolio i.e. Mirae Asset Mid Cap Fund, Kotak Emerging Equity Fund, and Motilal Oswal Mid Cap Fund.

Motilal Oswal Mid Cap Fund is currently investing only in 30 stocks which makes it focused in nature. The market surge has helped the fund achieve strong returns over the last year, but these returns have not been steady and have not had a particularly strong track record. Thus, we advise you to discontinue making investments in this fund.

You have investments in two Mirae AMC funds in your portfolio. We advise you to diversify your investments among different AMCs to lower the risk of concentration and to take advantage of the various investing strategies that AMCs follow.

We suggest you to continue to invest in Kotak Emerging Equity Fund since the fund has a good track record, past performance and it is well diversified as compared to its peers.

Ans: Hello, depending on the other assets that you hold is when i can answer if you should have multiple kinds of funds or just one category
For example you can follow this rule for portfolio creation :
Aggressive portfolios - small cap 30%, mid cap 30%, multi cap 15%, large and mid 15%, thematic 10%
Remember that past performance is not a guarantee for future returns, and it's always important to review your investments periodically to ensure they remain aligned with your financial objectives.
