De-cluttering the investing noise for the 0.01% club. What is The 0.01% club?Math.No, it's not a Math Club.Out of 1000 people who come to stock markets, 990 are traders and 10 are investors.Out of 10 investors, 1 truly stays invested and makes money. If you are that person or wish to be there, that's the 0.01% club.This is a humble attempt to de-clutter the noise in the investing world, especially focussed in the Indian context.You see, less than 5% of the Indian population have a Demat account to their name.Of all the market activity that takes place, 90% volumes are in F&O.90% of Mutual Fund holders in the country liquidate their holdings before 3 years complaining about ‘under-performance', yet they are happy to hold on to a traditional ‘money-back' insurance policy for 25 years with sub-par IRR.99% of Indians feel the stock market is the best place for gambling.90% of the Indian wealth is still in real estate and gold.What do all these numbers add up to?Well, for starters, what is obvious is obvious.Secondly, it is easy to manipulate anyone to build a narrative.Of all the facts stated above, only the volume part (90% in F&O) was a little stretched. That volume is generated by both domestic and foreign players.This is insight.Rest, are facts.So, what is the big insight?Well, only 1% of the 1% make money in the Indian stock markets, that's a very select bunch of few people, to begin with.The remaining are happy to over-allocate on traditional avenues of ‘Indian Investment' which has been passing on since generations.If you think you aspire to be in that or have the mindset to be there, this is for you.No content on this blog should be construed to be investment advice.
