Logic # 1 : We analysed the run up Story of one of the top performing Mid Cap Fund of India - HDFC Midcap Opportunity Fund ( as on 20th Nov 2023). The return bars are indicating that profit booking has just started. Based on this bar chart, we believe that one should preserve the good returns generated by these funds through Switching of full units to HDFC Balanced Advantage Fund. Please do not stop your SIP in any MIDCAP Funds, as it will give you the advantage of cost averaging on any future fall in such scheme.
Logic # 2 : We analysed the overall last 3 Years returns of the whole MIDCAP Fund category and we found that most of the schemes under MIDCAP category have delivered returns above 20% p.a, which is a good return for any portfolio. We believe that this is really a good return to preserve by switching the units to the respective Hybrid or Asset Allocation Funds
Let us read what experts say about MIDCAP Funds :
1. "From here on, the large-cap funds should do better than mid-cap funds. Investors should not pour money into mid-cap funds, unless they have a large investment horizon of 5-8 years,” says Vikram Dalal, Managing Director, Synergee Capital Services. As quoted to Economic Times
2. “At current valuations, we believe that mid-cap stocks are relatively expensive. If you are looking for undervalued stocks, there are far more opportunities in the large-cap space,” says Sankaran Naren, CIO, ICICI Prudential Mutual Fund.As quoted to Economic Times
3. “Mid-caps used to quote at a large discount, now it isn’t so. There is no reason to rush into the mid-cap funds now,” says K. Joseph Thomas, Director, Wealth Management, India Nivesh Securities.As quoted to Economic Times
Looking at the limited stock options under this MIDCAP category and huge buying rush from all segments, we believe that there is a trap ahead. Hence our final house view at Infinity Finserv (P) Ltd is given below :
