In turbulent times when global crises and economic slowdowns unsettle the stock markets, seasoned investors adopt a different mindset. Amid falling prices and waning enthusiasm, their conviction shines.
As fear and uncertainty rise, these wise individuals recognize opportunity where others hesitate, planting seeds for future prosperity when conditions seem bleak.
“The stock market has been suffering. The bull market that witnessed the past five years is no longer in the same momentum. The world crisis and slowdown have affected the markets. Many have become cautious, and even SIP investments have slowed down. The general middle‑class mentality is to invest when there is a boom and yield marginal gains. But the real wise investors invest when the markets are down and low, and wait patiently for the future to revive. Yes, the revival is certain — that is factual history,” says Rakesh Das, an investor who always buys shares and SIPs only when the markets are struggling.
“I feel happy when the markets are low and dry. I feel it’s the right time to invest, like farmers sow seeds in the right season in summer. Because that’s how I became wealthy enough to survive, followed by the rains of the bull times. Wise investors should behave like farmers,” Rakesh Das added, sharing a lesson for all- patience and long‑term vision define a truly successful investor.
In moments of crisis, the patient reap the richest harvest. True market wisdom lies in seeing beyond the noise, acting when others hesitate, and nurturing investments until the rains of recovery transform sparse fields into abundant gains for those bold enough to wait.
Will this be a lesson for daring and practical investors? Yes, there may be few to take this lesson.
