  • 14: Ep 014 - SIP or Lumpsum – What Works in a Volatile Market
    Equity markets have been volatile in the recent past. Sharp corrections are a good opportunity for investors to invest lumpsum or top up their existing investments. On the other hand, SIPs are useful in a volatile market as they help you get more units when markets fall. 

    Lumpsum investing is another option for investors but it can be a bit risky if markets were to fall immediately after investing. Both options have their pros and cons. In this episode, Lisa Pallavi Barbora and Ravi Samalad discuss how to use SIP and lumpsum investing to reach your life goals.
