Samco Active Momentum Fund NFO Conclusion:
Momentum investing is a strategy that seeks to profit from the tendency of stocks that have recently performed well to continue to perform well. Momentum investors believe that information about a stock’s performance spreads slowly from those who know it first (such as company insiders) to those who know it last (such as retail investors). As the information spreads, investors become more willing to buy the stock, which drives up its price. Momentum investors try to take advantage of this by buying stocks that have recently performed well and selling stocks that have recently performed poorly. It is important to note that momentum investing is not a guaranteed way to make money. The stock market is unpredictable and there is no guarantee that a momentum strategy will be successful in the future. However, momentum investing has been shown to be a profitable strategy over the long term. Investment in mutual fund units involves investment risks such as trading volumes, settlement risks, liquidity risks, and default risks including the possible loss of principal. Therefore, this product is suitable for investors who are seeking long-term capital appreciation and an actively managed thematic equity scheme that invests in stocks exhibiting momentum characteristics. Investors may consult with financial advisers at Elite Wealth if in doubt about whether the product is suitable for them.
