Ans: Hello Robin. . Your portfolio seems in line with the market. I would recommend to reconsider the SBI Focused Equity Fund and switch to better alternative schemes in same category. Also, you may introduce large & mid cap categories for your future new sips.

I am 26 years old and investing Rs.5100 each in Kotak Small Cap Fund & PP Flexi Cap Fund, through SIP since last 18 months. I have a long term view of over 10 years and may even like to continue even after 10 years. These fund have not shown much appreciation in last 2 years. Is there any need to review my investiment or I may continue above SIPs ? I am also thinking to start another SIP of 5000 in a large cap fund i.e. Mirae Asset Emerging Bluechip Fund, for a long term view. Whether it will be a good decision OR please suggest any other good option for large cap fund. Please guide.
Ans: Given your long-term investment horizon and diversified portfolio, it's natural to experience periods of lower growth or volatility, especially in specific market segments like small caps. However, it's essential to periodically review your investments to ensure they align with your financial goals and risk tolerance.

Considering your existing SIPs in Kotak Small Cap Fund and PP Flexi Cap Fund, it's advisable to assess their performance against their respective benchmarks and peer funds. If they consistently underperform, you may consider reallocating or discontinuing these SIPs.

Regarding starting a new SIP in Mirae Asset Emerging Bluechip Fund or any other large-cap fund, it's a prudent move to diversify your portfolio across different market segments. However, before making a decision, thoroughly research the fund's historical performance, fund manager's track record, expense ratio, and investment philosophy.

Alternatively, you can explore other large-cap funds known for consistent performance and stability, ensuring they complement your existing investments and contribute to your long-term financial objectives.

Remember, regular portfolio reviews and adjustments are crucial to optimize returns and mitigate risks over the long term. Consulting a financial advisor can provide personalized guidance based on your individual circumstances and investment goals.

I am MSC microbiologist. I have applying many companies but no response from anywhere I am desperately searching but not found my wishes job opportunity from Maharashtra but not responding any consultant and companies
Ans: I'm sorry to hear about your challenges in finding job opportunities in Maharashtra. Consider searching for positions in neighboring cities or regions where there may be more demand for microbiologists. Make use of online job portals and professional networking platforms to search for job openings in your field. Tailor your resume to highlight your relevant skills and experiences, and actively apply to positions that match your qualifications. Attend industry-specific events, seminars, and conferences where you can network with professionals in your field and learn about job opportunities. Join relevant industry associations or online forums to stay updated on industry trends and job openings. Identify companies in Maharashtra that may require microbiologists for research, testing, or product development purposes. Visit their websites, review their career pages, and reach out directly to inquire about job opportunities or submit your resume. Job searching can be a challenging and time-consuming process, but it's important to stay persistent and maintain a positive attitude. Celebrate small victories, stay proactive in your job search efforts, and remain confident in your abilities and qualifications. Keep refining your job search strategies, and don't hesitate to seek support from former colleagues, classmates, professors, and industry contacts who may be aware of job openings or able to provide insights into the job market.

My grandmother has Parkinson's and got a tube in her nose that extends to her stomach that so we can inject liquids easily as she completely avoids eating food and doesn't even swallow a sip of water. She snatched the tube out of her nose completely and now it cannot be used again. We cannot keep a check on her for full 24 hours but we try our best. Please suggest anything to avoid the snatching as once a tube has been taken out it cannot be re-inserted. And please one more thing that she keeps wetting the bed despite of using diapers. The diaper always leaks out and then my mom has to clean grandmother, her clothes, the bed sheets etc. She gets tired by doing this twice a day as it is a lot of work. Pls suggest something about the bed wetting to how to minimise it. She is around 70 kgs and cannot even get up herself so my mom has to pull her out of the bed which requires a lot of strength. My mom feels pain in her back and shoulder a lot. All of this happening around the house is too much. I will be grateful if you reply.
Ans: To avoid bed wetting you need to make her wear the correct size diaper. Undersheets can be used as an added protection.
Normally soaking happens if we do not change the diaper adequately.
Please ask your Mom to do some upper body work outs through a physios, help.
With respect to the Ryle's tube, it is an irritant that one gets used to. If your Grandmom does not like it and non cooperative not much can be done. But you could check up with her Physician if now and then Parenteral nutrition can be given by hospitalising her
