weeks.</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>Way Ahead</strong></h3><p>Overall, I am very happy with how the portfolio has performed till date. I am my own fiercest critic, and I can safely say that while <strong>+63%</strong> annualized ROI is good there are a few things we can do better.</p><p>After careful consideration of the data and also based on the many conversations with you all, there are a few things I must place before you all on what I believe is the best way forward</p><p>1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have done 25 trades in 10 months or roughly 2 trades a month. <em><strong>I would love to see this average go up to 3 trades a month or 35 to 40 trades next year</strong></em>. Of course, it goes without saying, we will not trade for the sake of doing a trade.</p><p>2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; While 21 consecutive trades of +25% is something to be proud of. &nbsp;Waiting to close every trade at +25% may not be a good idea. </p><p>There were instances last year where closing quickly and at reduced profit was a better option as waiting for the next wave of momentum to push up the scrip meant blocking of capital for an extended period for a few positions.</p><p>I know this is being over critical but then only when you hold yourself against high standards one can even think of being a success. In plain words, <strong>the duration of the trades may be shorter and we will not wait for +20% returns.</strong></p><p>3.&nbsp;&nbsp;The markets were up +20% in the past calendar year with the Sensex scaling 62000 on Oct 19, 2021.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; While there are no two opinions that the markets were overheated last year and continues to do so. </p><p>The bull frenzy which propelled it to new highs regularly has again made few of us throw caution to the wind. The continuous new highs the markets were touching were really not in sync with the state of the underlying economy battered by COVID.</p><p>With my two decades in the market, I can safely say that euphoria and over-confidence are the early warning signs that you should double your vigil and that is what we do at acceler8.</p><p>With a solid start behind us, <strong>we will be flexing the muscles, taking a bit more risks and cash levels will be carefully monitored.</strong></p><p>4.&nbsp;&nbsp;Lastly and most importantly, while the theme of earnings + learnings for the weekly acceler8 Follow my Portfolio service resonated with many of my subscribers, based on specific inputs from you all, we will be focusing more on acceler8 trades.</p><p>We will be doing more trades and also try to learn from the trades.  </p><p>The Section A which focused on learning will no longer be tied to the newsletter.  We will be continuing the weekly acceler8 Portfolio trade updates as usual.</p><p></p><h3>Subscribe</h3><p><strong>Acceler8 service &#8211; A steal at current prices</strong></p><p>To help more of you taste the magic of momentum, we have decided to offer a monthly plan starting today.

I wish to share the gist of the two incidents which happened this quarter which rather forced me to think on these lines. And I truly believe there is a lesson for each one of you too.</p><p><strong>As Otto Bismarck said &#8220;A fool learns from his experiences while a wise learns from other experiences &#8221;</strong></p><p> So, friends, this is the first piece in my series &#8220;An Investor&#8217;s search for meaning&#8221; (the title inspired by Viktor Frankl&#8217;s master piece &#8220;Man&#8217;s search for meaning&#8221;).</p><p></p><h2>Wealth without Health is useless</h2><h2>Work, Work, Work</h2><p>I am a certified workaholic. To be honest, workaholic is a wrong word. &nbsp;I don&#8217;t consider what I do as work. It is something what I love to do. And what you love to do is not really work. Anyway, not getting into work Vs passion, that I will leave it for another day.</p><p>When I say &#8220;workaholic&#8221; I meant I can work for 17 hours a day and be good with 4-5 hours&#8217; sleep 7 days a week. While some you can appreciate and relate to this- It is obvious it is not &#8220;healthy&#8221;. Healthy at multiple levels- Work Life Balance, Health, Quality of life and much more.</p><p>Few weeks back I was down with a medical condition which needed me to spend some time completely away from work. While I lying down in my house recuperating, I remembered the phrase in Malayalam which my father would often tell me as he saw his son glued to the laptop even in the middle of the night. </p><h3>Only if you have a Wall</h3><p>Loosely translated to English it means &#8220;<strong>Only if you have a wall can you draw a picture</strong>&#8221; (In those days canvas and drawing paper was not common. While this is the literal meaning- the real meaning is &#8220;<strong>Only if you have your health you can do / enjoy other pleasures / leisure&#8217;s in life</strong>&#8221;.</p><p>Whenever I heard this cryptic one-liner, I will give a smile and brush it aside. But as I was recovering from poor health due to years of body abuse and neglect, I could see my family, friends and well wishers were really concerned and tried to do their best but beyond a point they were helpless.</p><p></p><h3>Story of Ratnakar</h3><p></p><p></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Qdmx!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F86fc1b4d-5017-4e2b-91d7-84ae5b3de261_269x232.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Qdmx!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F86fc1b4d-5017-4e2b-91d7-84ae5b3de261_269x232.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Qdmx!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F86fc1b4d-5017-4e2b-91d7-84ae5b3de261_269x232.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Qdmx!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F86fc1b4d-5017-4e2b-91d7-84ae5b3de261_269x232.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Qdmx!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F86fc1b4d-5017-4e2b-91d7-84ae5b3de261_269x232.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Qdmx!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F86fc1b4d-5017-4e2b-91d7-84ae5b3de261_269x232.png" width="519" height="447.6133828996283" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://bucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/86fc1b4d-5017-4e2b-91d7-84ae5b3de261_269x232.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:232,&quot;width&quot;:269,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:519,&quot;bytes&quot;:129463,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Qdmx!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F86fc1b4d-5017-4e2b-91d7-84ae5b3de261_269x232.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Qdmx!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F86fc1b4d-5017-4e2b-91d7-84ae5b3de261_269x232.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Qdmx!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F86fc1b4d-5017-4e2b-91d7-84ae5b3de261_269x232.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Qdmx!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F86fc1b4d-5017-4e2b-91d7-84ae5b3de261_269x232.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p></p><p>I remembered the story from Hindu mythology. In this a common man Ratnakar, unable to feed his family takes up robbery. One day he attacks the sage Narada.</p><p>The wise Narada asks him, why are you doing this? He answered: &#8220;for his &#8220;family&#8221; for which the sage asked him whether his family would also share his sins? Ratnakar was very confident and on reaching home asked his wife and children narrated this incident and tried to confirm his assumption.</p><p>But to his utter surprise he was told that while they understood the circumstances, he had to undertake dacoity, they would not be a participant in sharing his sins. The rest is history and this <a href="https://iskconeducationalservices.org/HoH/further-information-and-teaching-resources-secondary/worship/sto-321-the-story-of-valmiki-mantra-meditation/">robber goes on to become Maharishi Valmiki</a>.</p><p>While we are no dacoits, nor do we aspire to become a sage it would be wise to remember that while family, friends and well-wishers care for you, understand you and will want the best for you- but your health is in your hands and if your body fails they will take care of you to the extent possible but the consequences and pain has to be borne by you alone.</p><p>So friends, take it upon yourself to take good care of your health. It does not mean you should not have the occasional party or the occasional late-night movie or occasional binge fest on junk food. It means that you will have no one else to blame if you neglect your body.</p><p></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Rockefeller</strong></p><p>This quote from John Rockefeller, one of the wealthiest people in modern history, beautifully articulates an investor&#8217;s love for receiving dividends. Little surprise then that dividend investing remains a very popular investment strategy.</p><p>On the other end, you have investing luminaries like Philip Fisher who in his seminal book &#8220;Uncommon Stocks and Uncommon Profits&#8221; had devoted an entire chapter on how dividends play an insignificant part in an investor&#8217;s quest for maximizing returns and finding outstanding companies.</p><p>The views of Rockefeller and Philip Fisher represent two diverse views on dividends in the investing world. Dividends and Investors have a strange relationship. Some investors actively seek dividend stocks, some completely ignore them and many are in between. </p><p>The short answer to the question &#8220;Do Dividends Matter?&#8221; : <strong>Yes.</strong></p><p>Check out this infographic about USD 10000 of Coca-Cola stock invested in 1962 under two scenarios:</p><p>a) Dividends reinvested in the same Coca-Cola stock</p><p>b) Dividends not reinvested</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!c2Nw!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb9eb093-a697-4999-87f2-0495fae6a524_746x429.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!c2Nw!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb9eb093-a697-4999-87f2-0495fae6a524_746x429.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!c2Nw!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb9eb093-a697-4999-87f2-0495fae6a524_746x429.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!c2Nw!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb9eb093-a697-4999-87f2-0495fae6a524_746x429.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!c2Nw!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb9eb093-a697-4999-87f2-0495fae6a524_746x429.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!c2Nw!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb9eb093-a697-4999-87f2-0495fae6a524_746x429.png" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://bucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/cb9eb093-a697-4999-87f2-0495fae6a524_746x429.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:null,&quot;width&quot;:null,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!c2Nw!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb9eb093-a697-4999-87f2-0495fae6a524_746x429.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!c2Nw!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb9eb093-a697-4999-87f2-0495fae6a524_746x429.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!c2Nw!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb9eb093-a697-4999-87f2-0495fae6a524_746x429.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!c2Nw!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb9eb093-a697-4999-87f2-0495fae6a524_746x429.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p></p><p>The difference: <strong>2 Million USD</strong> !!!</p><p>For a longer answer, please read the remaining post.</p><p></p>

In India the re-election of our honorable prime minister Narendra Modiji played a significant role in the upward march of Sensex to mount 58K.</p><p>With this in my mind a thought flashed across that it would be great if it was possible to revisit this initial interview taken 5 years back and check with Muthuji if anything had changed. </p><p>For those of you who know Muthuji&#8217;s, you will agree that Muthuji&#8217;s is intensely private person and very choosy about giving interview. &nbsp;I have been incredibly lucky to have the chance to pick his brains not once but twice. Once in 2016 and the second one now in 2021.</p><p>The investing acumen gained over years of study, reading and experience permeated into our conversations. </p><p>The conversations touched on many topics ranging from investment strategy followed, why Financial Independence (FI) should be every investor&#8217;s key goal, what needs to be done to achieve FI, investing greats who have shaped his investment strategy, Investment book recommendation and much more.</p><p>The investing insights from both the chats have been combined and logically grouped to present a holistic picture of a topic.

I hail from a very low-income family and naively thought that the stock market is a quick way to get rich.</p><p><strong>I joined a stock broking firm in Madras Stock Exchange (MSE)</strong> which gave me an opportunity to read financial newspapers, business magazines and interact with many investors. That kindled my interest to take up a career as a personal financial advisor.</p><p>But destiny had a different plan. After the start of National Stock Exchange, many small broking houses had to shut down and I lost my job. At the same time, in the second half of nineties, the <strong>BPO industry in India</strong> had started coming up. I got an opening and soon found myself progressing well in my new job.</p><p>Because of my innate interest in investing and personal finance, I used to give financial advices to many of my colleagues. They found my inputs very useful and also encouraged me to share more.</p><p>This went on for a decade. Though I was getting paid well, various factors including the odd working hours, continuous travel and stringent timelines started to take a toll on my health. By then I was married and discussed with my wife about pursuing my passion in personal finance and <strong>becoming a financial advisor</strong>.</p><p>Being high savers, by the age 34, we had a house, no loans and also had a corpus worth 10 years of our expenses.
