Have you finalized your long term investment plans but haven't yet decided on your mutual fund investment strategies? Watch the video to figure out your long term investment strategies and free yourself from the worries of timing the market.

While investing, the time for which you are investing in more important than timing your investments. When one tries to time the market, they make an attempt to buy at low price and sell at higher. However, there is no guarantee that the time chosen by the investor is indeed the right time. This is what makes the investment strategy risky.
Say you want to invest in an equity scheme for your 10 year old daughter’s higher education. You have an estimated amount and an investment horizon in place. To get there your investment advisor has suggested investing in an equity fund that will most likely get you to your goal. This way you invest a fixed amount every month and steadily reach your goal.
Timing the market is tough as one has to consistently keep up with the changing market conditions. Being calm and consistent with your investment can still get you to your goal. Long term goals like retirement planning, requires long term investment strategies.

Let’s go over this again:
• Timing the market is risky
• Timing can also play with an investors emotion, making them panic when the market goes down and greedy when the market is doing well
• Time spent in the market is more crucial
• Long term investment strategies work tend to work better as you focus on your goal and not on the market disturbances
